I don't think Steve was talking about needing more buildd maintainers; he was talking about the task of chasing up issues involved in trying to get required package uploads built everywhere, which currently ends up being a very significant time drain on the release team (since that's the set of people who know which uploads have the highest priority). -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
