As for "requesting your will", not a single person but you is insisting on not
having tor included without different init methods. I only see people who either
want tor in and don't care, or people who are negative about the split. If we
would be doing a concensus here, it would be to have a single tor package in FE
now, and in the future when initng IS in FE to do the split.

Furthermore, you expected initng to get here soonbut reality is, I still don't
see it in the upcoming FC6 (as shown in 5.92). Are we going to wait having a tor
package until FC7?

It is you who does not want to depend on package that are considered 'always
present', such as lvm2, thereby adding non fedora-extra issues to this package.

Let's not drag the tsocks argument into this. One can trivially grab
http://dag.wieers.com/packages/tsocks/ and put in in FE. I'll gladly either
propose it or approve it if this tsocks issue is considered a tor blocker.

The sub package issue is the only real issue here. It caused this package to not
be approved on 2005-12-22 and 10 months later is still blocking it. That's why I
think this should be discussed. This package either needs to get approved with
the subpackage structure, or should be declined in favour of another packager. 

It should not remain in political limbo.
