Seems reasonable - I'd say 2 weeks is plenty. Of course, if the |
| 9 |
maintainer explicitly rejects the change in a posting on the bug, then |
| 10 |
it is hands off without some kind of escalation. Non-maintainers who |
| 11 |
are concerned about a package can always step up to maintain, as long |
| 12 |
as it involves real commitment. |

Oh, and on a side note Markos raises a valid point on the bug about |
| 15 |
whether the devmanual is a good place for policy. The problem is that |
| 16 |
I'm not sure we really have a good place, especially with the ebuild |
| 17 |
docs gone in favor of the devmanual now. |
