Actually, for packages where we are not 100% sure about, the nice thing with that is that we can have it in -proposed, test it, and at that point still decide whether we want to copy to -updates or release. > Yes; furthermore, given that we have to manually approve any uploads through > the 'unapproved' queue anyway, if it's a fix that we know up front that we > want on the CDs and it doesn't cause archive uninstallabilities, it would be > more straightforward to just have these packages uploaded to the release > pocket instead of incurring the overhead of pocket copies. I agree. Those should be the "100% sure" cases. > The flipside is that we don't want to be having to bounce lots of packages > back out of -release and ask people to reupload to -proposed.
