About new package point, what about the negative impact of newly pushed package on distribution as a whole if it breaks to launch or crashes in some event(produced in some essential functionality) and was missed by packager/reviewer (2 people) ? I am in favour of letting this decision made by testing team (folks who contribute for testing in update-testing) based on package importance and availability of contributors. -- Rakesh Pandit https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Rakesh freedom, friends, features, first -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
