Starting a SIG for package reviews

2011-07-27 Thread Jason L Tibbitts III
For a while now I've wanted to get some sort of package review SIG going. The package review process hasn't really evolved much since it was instituted way back when, and now it (and the portion of the sponsorship process it overlaps) has become a major bottleneck in one of the main ways of

Erm, I guess I misread. I thought the file had been checked into git, rather than uploaded to the lookaside. Checking big binaries into git is a problem, uploading them to the lookaside isn't. I can remove it from the lookaside if that's really necessary, but there's really not much reason
