Greetings, again! Just spent a few minutes reviewing our project machines availability for the various platforms. Many are still locked down from the breakin many many months ago. Requests to debian-admin go unanswered. I have several previously portable packages which are now held up for months due in part to lack of access to a proper debugging environment. It appears as if this situation is not likely to be remedied soon. (In particular, alpha, arm, and sparc appear to be the most egregious offenders.)
I like everyone else have limited time to devote to Debian, but of course value to the project and especially its portability dearly. Nevertheless, it appears that it might be wise for me, and perhaps for others, to adopt one of the following procedures for their packages: 1) mark for i386 only, and let others be resonponsible for porting 2) upload binaries built under a cross compiling environment, assuming an acceptable one exists. I think that all bugs should be marked as minor if they are arch specific and if no machine is provided for at least a contiguous three months to address the issue. Comments?
