I think that it is probably worth discussing what the right policy |
9 |
should be around allowing masked packages to remain in the tree (if |
10 |
they have a maintainer). This would include packages with documented |
11 |
security flaws in the mask message, but it could also include other |
12 |
kinds of flaws. If the maintainer wants to keep them around, should |
13 |
they be permitted to? Are there any conditions on this, or is it |
14 |
maintainer-preference as long as it stays masked? |
