First, there is no queue. It's a list, but not a queue. I agree that we need policy here, but a serious problem is that currently when there is a backlog, maintainers of penalized packages have a perverse incentive not to fix any bugs in any *other* package because it will cause the penalty on their package to continue. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
