obligatory seasonal posts
ObVote: my vote goes to Matthew Garrett, whose platform and past activities deal with many of my concerns about the future of the project. I listed in the second place Anthony Towns: even if I do not remember anything specific from his platform he has a pretty good track record of doing good things for debian, so I think he could be a good DPL as well. The others are ranked below NOTA, for different reasons. Even if there are many people in Team Scud who I respect and I think did many positive things for the project, I do not like the idea of a DPL team nor I cannot support their association with Branden Robinson.
ObVancouver: I did not post anything about the subject yet because I do not have much to say: I could not have drafted a better proposal by writing it myself, the ftpmasters and release teams are proposing actions which I have been advocating for a long time. Even if I consider annoying that some relatively useful ports like alpha and sparc cannot currently be considered candidates for a standard release, interested people should not allowed them to get in such a bad state.
