1 tl;dr - I plan to file stabilization bugs without CC-ing arches first so
2 that maintainers have chance to comment anyway. That'd still generate
3 large amount of bugs, and I was mostly asking about that.

9 My script has checked for x86 and amd64, but I could easily adapt it to
10 check for more.

17 Right. My plan for now was to only CC x86 and amd64. I'm afraid other
18 archs wouldn't cope with the load and would be just very annoyed about
19 doing stabilizations for minor or revision bumps.

21 Note that I've only started thinking about this after my
22 batch-stabilization workflow proved to be effective. I think we can deal
23 with more stabilization bugs now, and that wouldn't be the case a few
24 months ago (we also have more ATs now).
