Again, I have had KEYWORDREQs open for more than a year with 0 activity. The only way to get any activity on these arches is to trigger the easteregg of going straight-to-stable, which ago's scripts catch (unlike KEYWORDREQs). This is ofc the total antithesis of using ~arch as a staging ground for stable keywords, but apparently that seems to be desired. I am absolutely willing to postpone the vote on this to after the arches.desc GLEP is finished, but being in denial over dead archs is helping no-one. If all of this ends in one big bikeshedding fest again, I will start dekeywording packages. Fortunately for me, I won't get any complaints (because the arch teams are dead). If the walls are mouldy, do you just paint over them and pretend everything is fine?
