Your faith is commendable, o' Debianite.  However, where can one find this
discussion?  I've been hitting the debian-devel list for the last hour w/o
success.  I know there was talk about it, and thus the seed for my proposal,
but I can't find the discussion anywhere.

Like I said, "will be" implies that you have a lot of faith with the Debian
crew, but I would like to see the actual project site, discussion archive, and
perhaps the forum in which to pariticipate.  Info, references my friend.
