Do I understand this correctly?  You are saying that if I upload a package and 
the autobuilder runs fewer than 4 minutes after I do the upload, that the 
files will be ignored?  So, I may have to wait 9 minutes before the build 
starts?

That breaks my "brute force" synchronisation approach (you remember the issue 
we discussed at length before: how should I deal with building an application 
where some packages are dependent on others).  If you remember, the approach 
we agreed on is for me to delay the maximum amount of time it could take for 
one set of packages to build (and be uploaded to the repository and visible 
in the repository) before submitting the next set.  It seems like I have to 
add a another 4 minutes into that calculation.

Obviously I would like it to be as short as possible.  And please bear in mind 
that there are scripts out there that depend on this value (and others, like 
how often the autobuilder runs and how often the repository queue is 
processed, etc.), so make sure you let us know if you change them (or, 
provide a system for handling dependencies automatically so we can throw the 
scripts away!).
