I'm especially loving the on hold section:
That said, they lay their logic out pretty nicely. It seems meant to be super opinionated, with extremely rigid rules they stick to in as binary of a fashion as possible to keep things managable for the small group maintaining the OS project.
It's their small project, they're allowed to be opinionated. At least they're open and straightforward.
"Hyperbola is not opposing a diverse and colorful software-landscape! [...] It sounds harsh when we need to mark a package being set on hold [...] This has nothing to with any kind more fanatic perspective as it is just following a simple and also direct logic."
We're still free to laugh at the unadulterated idealogical purity shit they've built as their logic though. ~~Deus~~ Freedom Vult
