The process to inject all packages to debian-ports is to get all the deb, udeb and buildinfo files from the archives (main and debug) and associate them with the .changes files that are hosted on coccia.

It would be nice to have a bit more than 2 weeks to do all of that. Ok. How much? Is 6 or 8 weeks better? I don't think, given how long this is on the table already, it doesn't make much difference if its 2 or 8. Just something thats clear defined and not some random, non-clear "sometime in the future" point. -- bye, Joerg

I'm curious how the GPG bit works given that there is no guarantee that the signature can be validated at any other point in time than ingestion on ftp-master - especially considering the rotation/expiry of subkeys and buildd keys. In this case the files already come from a trusted source and should be ingested as-is, I guess? (Not that I particularly like the fact that it's only a point in time validation.)
