This worked really well in the past - I hope you decide to continue this |
| 23 |
great work. |

I have two suggestions: |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
1. Put out a call for updated blacklist requests. This will help avoid |
| 28 |
(a) whinging from the vocal minority who are terribly offended by this |
| 29 |
sort of thing, and (b) unnecessary requests for sets of packages that |
| 30 |
are managed in bulk eg. certain kde and qt categories |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
2. Please update the bug filing script to use the new bugzilla |
| 33 |
components and package list fields - these are now essential to getting |
| 34 |
prompt service from arch teams |
