9 A possible way to alleviate this is proactivity on the maintainer's
10 part. Our current rule for going testing->stable is 30 days. If we
11 could alert the arch teams x number of days in advance they could test
12 it before the end of the period minimizing delays. Since all arch teams
13 would need this alert a relevant script could be created/modified.
14
15 I realize this doesn't help if the arch teams are just plain too busy.
16 Hopefully the 'fast arch' losing its speed will show people that we need
17 more help in testing and bring more people on board.
