What if one RE > knows not to accept, but some other RE doesn't and accidentally accepts? What if developer will ask both REs? Let me make it clear - I'm not saying this is a perfect scheme. I'm saying that this is working scheme and can be used right away. I'm as RE don't see this as a big deal. If developer asks me not to touch something until it's ready - I'm ok with this. To make this kind of projects easily recognizable we can use predefined submit tags for them. The benefits of this approach is: RE will see those projects can ping developers if they forget about them. Developers can get package repositories, images and even test results for their submissions. All of it is available for usage right now! > Tagging different "gbs submit"s with the same tag has a similar problem: > while the developer is in the process of adding submits, the group submission > is incomplete and must not be accepted.

Unless developer contacts RE and asks not to accept this particular submission. Simple like that.
