Never said the entire community was a democracy, I did say thought
that like a democracy people vote for the packages to be included.
You are right, that the Trusted Users have the final say on what
packages get included, I never said otherwise. We obviously can't let
everyone in the community have read/write access to the community
repo,
but the packages that the community members voted for in the AUR, are
being looked at by the Trusted Users. That's not a problem to me, and
if anything is a sign of a Representative Democracy. In the AUR aspect
specifically.
