17 It's a subtle point, but it's one I think that can be fixed with a
18 wording tweak - I get wraeth's point about users requesting
19 stabilisation of a package, which is quite true .. so I think the
20 wording of the final point here might be better as something like "...
21 to request stabilisation of a package by the Arch Teams" or such.
22
23 After all, we're basically talking about the correct authority to CC the
24 arch teams on the stabilisation bugs, vs filing a stabilisation bug,
25 right? [which also might warrant mentioning/clarifying at another stage].
26
27 It's a minor point, but may be clearer exactly what's being indicated,
28 rather than creating confusion or misinterpretation.
