I'm glad you cleared up your strong statement about fixing packages. I hope it was just a case of being overly keen and taking a step too far... such situations should always be dealt with through the bug tracker for community packages and as a comment on the AUR for unsupported packages. We have a policy in place about the process of orphaning a package in the AUR. But I'm afraid you are going to have to be a bit more specific about you being an ex Debian developer if you want anyone to vote for you. There is also no mention of you in the changelogs of gftp and conky. This experience was a primary factor in my choosing to sponsor you despite having few packages in the AUR. With that being questioned, your whole application is on very, very shaky ground, which is more than a bit embarrassing for me as your sponsor. Allan
