I'm mostly worried about leaning that I need to fix a package that I'm maintaining. I care about fixing bugs and purging unmaintaned packages, but most of the time I don't even see the report, or I know it's broken in hydra until I test again locally.
Do you have any ideas around getting word out to maintainers sooner?
