For the record, Kacper told me today that every developer is allowed to touch |
27 |
ppc/ppc64 profiles. Archies that don't want others to touch their profiles |
28 |
should mention it in the devmanual. I was not aware of that, I thought that |
29 |
!arch member is not allowed to touch arch-specific profiles. Anyway, KDE 4.6 |
30 |
will be unmasked tomorrow. |
