Could you please give a rationale why we don't want binNMUs in ubuntu,
but require sourceful uploads? I was under the impression that we don't
want this because there was no infrastructure for this. Now the request
for adding this is rejected on the grounds that policy forbids this. I
have the feeling we are turning in circles here, so could someone please
followup on the bug report?
