Nicholas,

No worries. Over the past few months I realized that dgit is compatible
with gbp layout, so that the way it works is compatible both ways. I
have also added a `debian/gbp.conf' matching the current practice at
[1][2].

Provide links in context. I've explained this at length before. Stop
using end-notes for mentoring conversations. This is not a suggestion.

I found this statement to be a bit surprising.

As background, I should note that I very rarely use end-notes in emails. So,
I certainly am one who has a demonstrated record of placing links in context,
because it feels more natural to me, both when reading and writing emails.

However, it is also without question that placing links in end-notes is by far
the most common practice on Debian mailing lists. I would take that to be a
general consensus among most people who write to the mailing lists that it is
either appropriate or encouraged to do so.

Therefore, I have a hard time endorsing any statement mandating in-line links
on Debian Mentors. However, I am glad that, so far, nobody has complained
when I have chosen to do so in the emails I send.
