Do we have a phone number we can try them on? Is it possible the emails are getting lost or trapped in a spam folder?

But just promoting a few applications now, won't avoid the problem in the long term. We need to provide an automatic mechanism for promotion once that applications have fulfilled the criteria to avoid dependency on original (and maybe missing after some time) maintainer. Besides the root of this problem (and others) is the fact that the community, the Council, the developers, don't have the possibility to actually do things and fix the problems that arise from time to time. We have been trying to contact Niels and Henry for the last month to set up a meeting on the IRC to discuss how to proceed, but we haven't receive any answer yet. Regards. 2012/4/3 Timo Härkönen < [email protected] > While this could be discussed in the tester ml I'd prefer to keep this discussion here since IMO it needs wider attention. By looking at the QA queue [0] the oldest packages are promoted to testing a year ago so the problems isn't exactly a new one. It needs to be resolved anyway. First thing obviously is to get rid of the 6 pages long queue... I propose making a test round (by 2+ people) for _all_ the packages there promoting what can be promoted and then cleaning the older packages not fit for promotion from testing. Since there's no automated system we need help from Niels(?). So how about we provide a list of packages to promote/demote to him? This will take a bit of effort but it needs to be done and cannot be done by a single person. I'm in. who else? Might be easiest to communicate this if we setup a IRC channel. #maemo-testing or something?

You foreshadowed some issues in the quote below, I asked you to elaborate on them. I won't read through the threads that I just had to find myself, sorry - instead I expected you to summarize the issues, as you initially came up with that topic here. In general it seems like there is a communication issue. It's depressing to see such problems only made half-public by the council now, just before an election. My two cents, andre Sorry andre, I do a lot of things and can't search for you. I did point you in the right direction though. The topic came up in response to a question from Quim, not really raised by me. The testing ML is fully public (not half-public), and the topic was discussed on the forum and on a mailing list. There is no communication issue among those who have been involved.
