Please reduce the 10-day age period to 9 (or less) of this package. Let me
explain the situation:

We have worked hard with a big package: pcl. The package goes to new queue
on June (2014-06-10). It was about 4 months.

- It was rejected because problems in the copyright file. (2014-10-03)

- Upstream in the middle releases a new version. (2014-09-10)

- We worked with the new version and I asked my sponsor to upload it on
Wednesday. (2014-10-15)

- My sponsor upload it on Wednesday (2014-10-22) and ftp-masters upload it to
unstable on Friday. (2014-10-24)

- The same day, a few hours after to be in unstable, someone filled a Important
bug of one binary package #766685: libpcl-dev

- A few hours after I prepare a new version of the package solving the bug and
I uploaded to mentors the new package, commented the bug and asked to my 
sponsor to
upload the package (2014-10-25). However, I made a mistake and I put UNRELEASED 
so my
sponsor rejects to upload it.

- On Sunday morning (2014-10-26 Morning (UTC)) I asked to my sponsor to
upload the new version, thinking that the period to have a package in testing
before November 5th ended Sunday 26th 23:55 (UTC) (November 5th - 10 days). My
sponsor upload it this morning 5:57, day 27th.

I don't know if someone will fill any bug against the package before November 
5th.
I hope that no. But, we are not in time to be in testing before freeze because
6 hours... so it won't be in Jessie.

Please, could you reduced the 10-day delay?

Thanks in advance.
