Hi Salvo,

one big difference for bible-kjv and fortunes-it-off is that bible-kjv provides
reasonable defaults.  We can discuss whether the package is accepatble or not
as a whole but the contents are more or less fixed.  On the other hand, the
contents of fortunes-it-off is by definition in flux.  The more you remove the
more you may be asked to remove.  And wouldn't it become boring if nothing is
added?  Debian's structure does not accompdate well data packages with dynamic
content.  A lot of software we provide have external plugins that we do not
package.  And - ahem - AI can also revolutionise how fortunes content is
collected, served, curated and personalised.  I understand that you felt badly
treated and this is in my opinion the main issue.  But the package itself,
maybe there is nothing wrong thinking that it does not have much of a future in
its present form in Debian?

Have a nice day,

Charles
