The "30 days maintainer time out" stabilization policy isn't working when package has multiple SLOTs, because the bugs are filed for only latest SLOT, where as some packages require stabilization in sync at both SLOTs
Option 1: Either revert the whole policy, and never CC arches on unanswered bugs when the package has a maintainer, and let him do it when he finds the time himself, and if that doesn't happen, wait until it's dropped to maintainer-needed@ Option 2: Or, the person who is CCing the arches in 30 days timeout, needs to make sure the bug covers all SLOT at the same time The status quo no longer allows me to maintain stable version of dev-libs/girara, app-text/zathura*, and the issue needs to be addressed, see http://bugs.gentoo.org/502714 for what inspired this mail - Samuli
