Absolutely.

The thing to keep in mind is that for Apache projects the community
has full access to a descriptor that lives inside the Gump module.  So
the community that can fix things includes more people - and all
people who could fix things when the descriptor is in a more private
module.

I see.

I'm a bit unsure as to what we can do here since we'd need to know
whether the nags simply get ignored (in which case there is no point
in doing anything but turning them off) or just postponed.  Is there
any automatic way to tell?

Seems to work now 8-)
