That response is astonishing to me. The suggestion to split the team originated inside the former ftpmaster team[1] and was raised on multiple occasions. Ftpmasters were informed about the planned delegation split several weeks in advance. It was also mentioned in my bits on debian-devel-announce[2], with a link to the delegation texts in Git. I therefore expected comments from members of the FTPMaster team as well as from the broader Debian community - and indeed received several from people outside the FTPMaster team. My last mail on the topic, sent to the ftpmasters' internal list, was: Date: Tue, 21 Oct 2025 18:02:53 +0200 Message-ID: <[email protected]> Since I haven't heard any objections or alternative proposals regarding the planned team split, I intend to proceed and send the updated delegations this weekend. Of course, if anyone has concerns or suggestions-especially about the timing or wording-please let me know before then. I'd be happy to adjust if needed. > /wanting to go that way. > So we now have to see how we deal with this > mess that helps nothing at all except for some "Oh i delegated, magic now > will happen" bullshit believes. Might take a day or three or something. Unfortunately, no objections or alternative proposals were received, so I proceeded with what seemed the most constructive path forward: creating clearer scopes of responsibility to make it easier for new contributors to join and for existing work to be shared more evenly. I intend to continue supporting both teams, in particular by helping the DFSG & Licensing team build up the capacity and structure it needs. That's why I asked for volunteers and why I trust that new contributors can help improve the situation for everyone involved. The best way to shape how NEW processing evolves is by taking part in it directly - volunteers are warmly invited to join the renewed DFSG & Licensing team. Kind regards Andreas.
