I wasn't suggesting an ordering. I think it should be done in parallel. I think it's easier to do (b) if we do (a) nicely and say "come help us understand what you want" instead of guessing. E,g, Debian/Ubuntu people were concerned about total size. (EU::MM doesn't really make a huge difference on that front). Otherwise, we might do (b) and then find that it still doesn't serve and we're back to (a) but now with wasted time and probably more ire all around. -- DavidThread Previous | Thread Next
