BTW, another point worth noting is that there is not actually a specific rule against +1ing your own updates. It's 'frowned upon', I guess, but actually I think it's probably workable to say it's fine for the developer to +1 their own update in Bodhi: *as long as you actually have tested it*. For non-critpath updates especially. The Bodhi system is essentially an honor system anyway. So how I'd see this working is if it becomes clear that some maintainer is gaming the system by just +1ing everything they submit, even if it actually turns out to be broken, we look at saying they can't +1 their own updates any more. But if you actually are conscientiously testing your own updates, that's probably worth a +1 in Bodhi, for me. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
