There is quite a big difference between writing code and pushing
deprecated code to our repositories; I really hope you can see that.
Obviously you are free to improve netcfg's code; but pushing it to our
repos is a different story.

Could we agree that going against the concerted decisions of official
packagers (as made on this list) is obviously wrong, and that you will
not do it again in the future? It'd be nice if we could all move on...
