Policy status

Today was very bad for getting productive work done. Oh well.

Some interesting discussion of the interaction between the Debian technical committee and Debian Policy came out of the debian-vote discussion, though, which makes me happy. I need to go commit a bunch of pending Policy patches, and then I think I'm going to start closing the Policy bugs that I think are bad ideas and refer people to the technical committee for appeals. This gives the technical committee more direct work to do and hopefully a chance to demonstrate functionalness and starts reducing the Policy bug load.

Oh, and gluck.debian.org has finally been upgraded to etch, which means that lintian.debian.org is now going to be much easier to maintain. I'm doing the full regeneration now using the current lintian release.
