7 Then could the council at least say that? Right now they basically
8 said that if the maintainer doesn't want the file they can remove it,
9 unless the systemd team signs up as co-maintainers on any package with
10 hostile maintainers. They did NOT say that the maintainers should
11 accept these files and offload the maintenance burden for the file
12 (something which the systemd team indicated on-list is acceptable to
13 them).
