I'm also against this. Inactivity for a week or two is not enough reason to allow a known regression to be present in a release. Is there a reason we can't identify the commit that caused the problem and simply revert before doing the release, then fix it afterwards? If we're in a position where trunk has drifted so far between the regression and its identification that it is too labor-intensive to revert and we need to fix it forward, then the release is stuck - that's the whole point of the "release blocker" category. This is a very unfortunate situation but less unfortunate than shipping buggy releases that are known to break big users of Twisted. -g
