I have removed these packages (see below) from potato. They are all still in woody. I've also installed or rejected most of the uploads for potato. I'm holding task-parallel-computing and I'm still thinking about nedit.
I plan to do more of this on Monday, and perhaps Sunday if I can get net access then. I don't have as much time as I expected, though, so the test cycle may be delayed by another day. I hope to end up with only a short list of RC bugs in packages that we really can't do without. If it's short enough, I may call for specific uploads to be made and wait up to three days for them. Otherwise, we'll have to have another test cycle that we know won't become a release -- oh well. (The ones I'm thinking of are emacs20, gdb, gpm, glibc, pdl, ssh, sysvinit, and util-linux -- I hope the list can be shortened because not all of those look release-critical.)
