words, I think it might be reasonable to have bundling in the outer<br>

To me, this idea is not helpful.<br>
All it does is to send upstreams a message which encourages to<br>
disregard the issues of bundling, to work "dirty" and not to care<br>
about their coding quality.<br>

I think the stark reality is that few upstreams these days care about<br>
any message we send, for or against coding quality. We're just not in a<br>
strong position there, as much as I'd love it if we were.<br>

I disagree - We need to send a message, to raise awareness about these issues ("Beware the beginnigs!") and to be explict againt people who bundle.<br>
<br>
Or differently: Not-bunlding is one of the key features, which fuels Linux befamed security. If you're dropping this, we worse than Windows.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>How do we send this message?
