How many of the others you listed are vs. are not Debian Developers I don't know, but it seems possible that that might change the calculation somewhat. (FWIW, I'm also not against format=flowed, but am unlikely to take any action regarding using it myself; I remember specifically taking action to *disable* it on my end at some point in the past, although I can't remember whether that was on the viewing end or on the sending end, nor can I specifically remember why. I just remember that it was producing problematic line-wrapping-related behavior in some contexts.) -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man. -- George Bernard Shaw
