A few people are dictating what to do next, and that's just not how Debian works. You'll figure out that the timing for this new policy is absolutely perfect; we're a week away from the voting period for the new DPL term. The current DPL can't (and won't, obviously) do anything about it, and the candidates signed the proposal. I should add that the Vancouver meeting was announced at the very last minute, too. And I'm wondering, who paid for the travel expenses ? Did the people involved pay out of their own pocket ? Did the Project pay ? Did somebody else pay the bill ? >> I joined the Project because there was no core team to decide what was >> to be done in an authoritative manner.

We can. I hereby ask the people involved in this proposal to step down immediately from their positions in the Project. You've violated a couple of rules already, and you've violated the spirit of this Project. >> Congrats, folks, you've got what you've been after for several years >> now. Great job.

It just doesn't have to happen. Our call; we're the ones making Debian, they're not.
