That's not completely accurate. While stable requests should indeed be |
11 |
handled by the package maintainer, keyword requests can be handled by |
12 |
bug wranglers. |

The policy is documented in |

# * A keyword request should be assigned to the package's maintainer |
18 |
# and CC'd to the appropriate arch team(s). The report's Keywords |
19 |
# field should contain the KEYWORDREQ keyword. |

# * A stabilisation request should be handled by the package's |

# maintainer, so you should not CC arch teams in your role as bug |

# wrangler, nor set the STABLEREQ keyword in the Keywords field. |
24 |
# Unless the package is maintainer-needed, then you should add |
25 |
# arches and set the Keyword field if the bug makes sense. |
