21 What do you mean by "And?" - it doesn't make much sense as a reply. :\

23 I think you need to become much more specific in order to participate
24 in the discussion.
25
26 "Two wrongs don't make a right." implies that you can not imagine any
27 exception to the (whose?) rule for how many packages are the minimum
28 allowed in a category.
29
30 It suggests a lack of fingerspitzgefühl needed to detect when a
31 particular rule is actually wrong, which I think is the case here,
32 if x11-base and the other above categories are all wrong.
33
34 Sometimes it is the rule that needs to change, you know?
