Hi, The branches have been merged and deployed now (with bounty/penalty set to 0). The first few britney runs appears to have run successfully and the excuses are now mentioning autopkgtests. @Paul: I have setup hint-permissions for you. Please log into respighi.d.o and run: touch ~release/britney/hints/elbrus Whenever you are ready, we can send out the [announcement] and change bounty+penalty. Thanks, ~Niels [announcement]: https://gobby.debian.org/export/Teams/Release/using-autopkgtest
