“...else it's not damage control by Debian like you suggest”

Nowhere did I suggest Debian was doing damage control.

You are simply misrepresenting me.

“That’s what you say now, but not what you said originally”

Another misrepresentation. What I said originally, and my follow up comment are perfectly consistent.

I’m curious why you feel such a strong need to defend DebianDev and deny that there is any damage control happening.
