No it isn't. That proposal specifically states that upstream code is not included in the ban.

    Literally in proposal A:

    We will not allow direct contributions to Debian written with the use or assistance of large language models (LLMs) or other generative AI tools. Direct contributions are defined as packaging, native Debian software like lintian, documentation and translations written by Debian contributors, and official Debian web resources, etc. Other categories such as upstream projects written with LLM assistance may be included at a later date. This ensures that Debian remains a stable, trusted, and reliable operating system, and protects the interests of the Debian volunteers who make it possible.

    Cool downvote tho

    "may be included at a later date" so it isn't in the proposal right now. nice way to be dishonest, instead of just admitting that you were wrong. Because this is in Proposal A:

    It does not include:

    Upstream projects using LLMs for development

    AI-related software

    Upstream patches/security fixes etc.

    Also whining about downvotes is such a pathetic look. You deserve them for lying.

    Its definitely being discussed and voting is happening as we speak.

    So like I said, its definitely being discussed, you fuckin knob. That verbage is DIRECTLY FROM PROPOSAL "A" which means it has been discussed enough to include that in the text.

    Learn to admit you were fucking wrong, idiot. You're literally unnecessary in this thead, so far.
