I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean. Perhaps I misunderstood
what the proposal is. My understanding is that there are new
versions of software which supposedly repair security defects in
something called testing. And that until they are tested by some
volunteers, they remain there. I understand that the proposal is
to institute a time limit such that if software resides in testing
without any further testing actually being done, then it automatically
enters released after a set time period.
That is correct. However, if the necessary QA votes get published
before the timeout hits, the package will be released sooner.
very self service project. You get out of it what you put into it.
More accurately, I get out of it what I pull from the repositories.
And by not contributing any QA yourself, you can not expect to get any
QA besides what the original packager put into the release. Which is
good enough if we can't get enough QA votes to release it before the
proposed timeout hits. If it's not good enough for you, I suggest that
you QA these packages yourself.
