I'm rather new to the whole Arch world, but I can offer the following:
Your messages to this list about Sergej sound more like personal attacks than constructive criticism. It seems to me that he's taken on a lot of responsibility here and your giving him grief over it won't help matters. ut maintaining packages for a small number of users fails to acknowledge that this is the very same behaviour as what you will find in the Linux kernel. Modular design strategies lend themselves well to communities with diverse needs. It seems to me that if the packages are used, accurate, and maintained, they should stay.

But many of sergej's packages aren't "used" and "maintained" (see the previous mails) at all. IMO: I think we can start saving some space just with sergej, but also we have packages "unpopular", without votes and with few use, then we can go with our unpopular packages. Also sergej wasn't present in our meetings, he seems to be a machine like other ppl said, and to me is very unfair thinking about move packages to unsupported when you are the main guilty about the waste of space with packages with zero votes and non-popular. This is not an attack sergej I also would like to say "I maintain -three digit number- packages" someday but now being honestly why you, specially you who have that big quantity of packages on community and you are knowing the lack of resources, why you don't proposed to move your pkgs which have a small use to unsupported (i think 20% of your packages or more)?, as I said, starting just with sergej should be a good start, if you need help identifying what packages we are talking about I think we can do a list with some packages, then we can take this action as an example for the rest of us (TU crew) to move some stuff to unsupported. And please, i think now we should stop some uploads about new packages to community, at least until we've saved some space. -- Angel Velásquez angvp @ irc.freenode.net Linux Counter: #359909 Arch Linux Trusted User
