Yes, I think getting from them the privilege of being the only ones able to |
25 |
stabilize applications should do the job. |
26 |
|
27 |
No, seriously - given the fact that some of my packages were even stabilized |
28 |
without contacting me (app-misc/hal-cups-utils, app-admin/system-config- |
29 |
printer-common) - I think it should be: |
30 |
|
31 |
* solely up to the package maintainers to stabilize application on arches |
32 |
they're using or on any arch if package is arch-agnostic (optionally, but |
33 |
preferably with some peer review from other project members or arch team |
34 |
members). |
35 |
|
36 |
* to arch team members in other cases (like now) |
37 |
|
38 |
* other rules (30 days 'waiting' period, bugzilla bug with STABLEREQ) applied |
39 |
as they are now |
40 |
|
41 |
Role of arch teams would be decreased to peer review and solving KEYWORD |
42 |
requests. |
43 |
|
44 |
It's really freaking silly to wait months for stabilization of some random |
45 |
php/perl library that's known to work. |
