Every package maintainer I know of does. But there isn't a single package maintainer that has a 100% test setup that covers all of the various ways in which their code is used. Maintainer testing should be considered good, but *never* sufficient for release testing. There needs to be more done. > The OFED testing then tests all the currently released packages This is backwards IMO. Testing after the release results in exactly what I mentioned in my email. The right time to test is during the release process, not after it is already complete. -- Doug Ledford <[email protected]> GPG KeyID: 0E572FDD
