I especially appreciate how it improves transparency as to which packages are being worked on and what the concerns are, if any, for a package. If I may make one suggestion, the previous dashboard listed Maintainer, Change-By, and Sponsor. The new dashboard does not list the sponsor. I appreciated having visibility to the sponsor field because that allowed me to search for my name on the page and see the status of all the packages I had sponsored that were in the NEW queue. -- Soren Stoutner [email protected]
