no, just you don't care about some platforms like mips, hppa, etc...
different goals and motivations.

Fortunately, these patches produced by the packagers with their developers hat 
are pushed to Qt and KDE.

why do you think developers cannot be packagers and similarly packagers cannot 
be developers ? yes, some of us are still not paid to do this work, so please 
stop this kind of bad messages you spread (and optionaly your fight with 
Sune).

otherwise, for qt-copy removal => +1 :)
@lubos: we can track changeset on git as we've done on svn.

I don't see any problems to switch.

cheers,

Hey, isn't it the first step to a complete switch to git ;)
I already see all the git fans coming from everywhere, especialy if 
git.debian.org is set up.
