In my experience, the RT rarely pre-approve freeze exceptions without much more details of the change. And if you want an answer, you'd rather ask a more formal questions than just add a CC to their list. You should also use a bug so that it doesn't get lost... > > Yes, or tagging +help. > > In this case, when there is still no response, using d-d-a would have been > > appropriate. > > Yes, I agree.

I don't think that we want call for help on d-d-a for each package needing some love. I would suggest: 1/ mailing debian-devel instead 2/ mention that -devel mail in a short paragraph in wiki.debian.org/DeveloperNews 3/ blog your call for help on planet.debian.org Cheers, -- Raphaël Hertzog ◈ Debian Developer Get the Debian Administrator's Handbook: → http://debian-handbook.info/get/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
