Similar to [last year](https://summit.debconf.org/debconf15/meeting/190/using-dbconfig-common/), I would like to discuss what is the way forward for [dbconfig-common](https://packages.debian.org/sid/dbconfig-common). Package maintainers that use or want to use or can't use dbconfig-common are especially invited to join the discussion. Share your success stories, difficulties or problems with respect to dbconfig-common. What are the wish lists (please file them already in the [bts](https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=dbconfig-common) if they aren't there yet)? I will briefly review the [fixes and improvements](https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/dbconfig-common.git/plain/debian/changelog) that I implemented in the year between Debconfs. Some ideas that I have: * way more databases support * inclusion in the Debian Policy that certain packages should use dbconfig-common * update/review the database policy included in the dbconfig-common package
