Hi Laurent,

A few questions, before I give my response...

1.  What do you feel the quality of telepathy packages is like in Ubuntu?

2.  Do you think the freeze (in particular, UVFe) requirements are
reasonable, and what (if anything) would you like to see improved in
them?  Do you think that it is too much red tape, to file a UVFe,
including the part about giving reasons for the changes?

3.  Of your patches that have been incorrect, are you confident that you
have gained the skills to not make these mistakes again?  Remember,
upload rights are unrestricted, and a lot is based on trust.  There isnt
much (if any) peer review of uploads.

4.  How do you tend to deal with regressions in packages, particularly
after a freeze?
