23 VDB discussion
24 ==============
25 The council believes that specifying a unified VDB cache could prevent package
26 managers from innovating. The council also considers that the use of e.g. a
27 timestamp to facilitate working (or experimenting) with different VDB caches
28 is a nice thing, but prefers leaving the decision whether to implement such a
29 feature to the developers of the package managers.
