Re: Pending packages status

My work here is simple - keep a list of packages so people won't forget

Don't go away mad. I heartily appreciate your efforts to prevent
contributions from getting lost. (It's not like we have so many
contributors that we can afford to alienate them by forgetting about
their contribution).
I took your [original] comments to be just like those of any other
reviewer: subject to disagreement (and revision). We can
agree/disagree/argue on the list about specific requirements for
specific packages or for packages in general; the goal is to get good
packages into the distribution. IMO, this entire discussion is
unrelated to the admirable job you're doing with the
list-of-pending-contributions. [Which is now up to almost 10,
unfortunately -- and I've got two more to add soon <g>]
