The TC can overrule individual developers (§6.1.4 in the Debian
constitution), but it can't overrule a position delegated by the DPL,
and the ftp team is such a position. We have had situations in the past
where an issue involving the ftp team was brought to the TC, and the
most we could do abotu it was to "offer advice" (agree among ourselves
on a non-binding opinion, §6.1.5) and hope that the ftp team might
reconsider their decisions on the basis of that advice.
To the best of my understanding, the only mechanism the project has for
overruling a DPL delegate is a GR.
