After having been (again) demoted (blah)
based on flimsy arguments, I have been forced to rethink the level
of contribution I want to do for Debian. Blah blah blah blah
After about 20 years in Debian, blah blah blah
blah
KDE/Plasma, frameworks, Gears, and related packages:
blah
All these packages are group maintained, so there is not much to
worry about.
Furthermore, a few new faces have joined the team and
are actively working on the packages, although mostly on Qt6. I guess
that with me not taking action, frameworks, gears, and plasma
will fall back over time

Admittedly, this guy doesn't have much faith in the the Debian/Kde team. 😆 Regards

Who is this clown again? 😂
Who is this clown again? 😂
I respect Norbert for the work he did on Plasma/KF/Application packages.
I do not think it is fair to speak of him (or anyone else) as clown.
From what I have perceived he contributed a lot to make timely releases
of packages happen.
I don't know what is going on here… what this demotion thing about, so I
do not comment directly on it.
I never had any issues with Norbert.

Full ACK.
Let's always keep discussions civil and in good faith...

I have been using Debian since 1998, but start wondering whether it
really makes sense to support a band of politicans much further.

The Debian KDE team is a (small) handful of people maintaining both the Qt stack and the ~500 frameworks/plasma/apps packages on their free time.
Lately Norbert was doing most of the later.
More contributors are really welcome ! If you've always wanted to become a Debian contributor and are interested in the KDE stack, now is a perfect time.
Join us on IRC, the handful is a friendly bunch of people.
Best,

I didn't wanted to angry anyone. Apologies. But he kinda asked for it:
"I guess that with me not taking action, frameworks, gears, and plasma
will fall back over time "
Really?

+1. And also not with Marco, as far as I remember. Which comes with little relevance, as we did not have much contact before.

Well, but jftr, let's not forget who started this thread and in which way.
At
the very least, citing the source of ones comments is quite basic IMNSHO.
Kindest regards,

yep.
For me key is that we loose a very valuable contributor and great contribution! Reasons for this are unclear to me. Why this demotion, are those who decide on this stating and communicating their reasons, better is this a group decision?
