Hi jidanni,

I'm extremely angry about you forwarding my findings to the
Debian BTS. Debian decided not to give me a vote again without
passing a full NM procedure which I don't accept, hence:
*I don't fix their bugs without having a vote*.

@ Debian's at maintainer, I hereby declare: 
*You are not allowed to use my findings for Debian.* 

No objection against the Cc to gnu though.

@jidanni
Please don't cite me to anybody without my permission. I addressed
address@hidden, not address@hidden or even
address@hidden, which you may be assured I am capable of.

My goal is not to make Debian's at package better, but to offer
an enhanced replacement via https://launchpad.net/~at-ng.

Thanks
  Siggy

ps: Do you grant me permission to cite you to address@hidden,
    which obviously is an address for at-ng related stuff?
