I agree that's a worthwhile goal.

But for that to happen, I think it'd be more efficient to gather
information on this list, hopefully reaching consensus on a common
position or, at worst, on a small sets of positions. Then someone can
summarize them for the tech-ctte.

It looks like a way more efficient workflow, at least for the Debian
Technical Committee that tends to be very busy, than soliciting opinion
from all this list participants directly in the bug log.

Cheers.
