Hi All,

I have just seen some 20+ emails on the list, and no single one which
comments on the RFC. I know nobody asked me or parazyd to compile the
document, but you could at least have given it a full read.

Despite what nextime and CenturionDan keep repeating, that document is
the closest thing to the documentation of the current state of the
Devuan build infrastructure (yes, I have studied it, despite the
complete lack of information and documentation on the code and on the
infra). And it proposed a way to solve a major prolem we have now,
that is enabling users to help us.

For Dan: what we have at the moment is not flexible at all. Once a
user can build his project, he can build it for *any* suite, including
those we have in production. So no, what releasebot does at the moment
is not enough, IMHO.

An RFC is a Request For Comments, you know. If you have comments on
it, please express and articulate them appropriately.

Just saying "nay" is not gonna help.
