 Hello everybody,
 
 if you have upload rights, please have a look at the sponsoring queue.
 It has been neglected recently and it'd be good if you could put in some
 time to get patches reviewed and uploaded to Ubuntu.
 
   http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/sponsoring/
 
 If something is not suitable to be uploaded, please inform the
 submitter, subscribe yourself to the bug, target 'later' and unsubscribe
 the sponsors team.
 
 Let's get some patches uploaded and some last minute bugs fixed.

At this point, what do you suggest we do with the several minor fixes
from bug fix initiatives like adding homepage fields, fixing typos and
adding misc:Depends (OK, the last one is worth it if it catches
something, but usually it does not)? There are quite a number of those
in the queue. I suspect they distort the numbers somewhat. (Not wishing
to rehash the debate on whether these things should be in the queue,
just addressing the current situation)

Cheers,

I think we should just get them in, it shouldn't be too much effort to
review and sponsor them.

Have a great day,
 Daniel

If the package is coming from Debian, I usually close the request
(bug or MP) with a friendly comment and forward the patch to Debian.
If it's an Ubuntu specific package I see no reason to not just upload
them.

That's exactly what I'm doing right now :)
