Probably I am missing something or it's a new approach to applicants. I see some "quick" new maintaners in nm.debian.org who have no any package yet in woody (or this information is secret and I dont'think about just ITP's only). I see also some "processed" (but not quickly) applicants who have already their packages in woody. Mariusz -- Mariusz Przygodzki | Good judgement comes from experience.
