I'm not sure of the meaning "any" here.  If I make a generic change
(say, to mdcfg) which affects all arches, but all in the same way, it
should be enough to get it tested on one or two arches.  Is this
correct?  Just to clarify.

Should we keep separate branches for this?   Or where do I make a
change that will build against sid but not sarge?

Also, it's not clear from your mail _when_ this testing propogation
happens.  Only right before a new beta release is made, or can I ask
for a udeb to move to testing at any time?

Basically, how I understand this is that I have to argue that my udeb
should move to testing, and I have to show that it won't break
anything.  I think this sounds fair enough.

I think it would be helpful in the future to have the summary for one
package in one mail, and maybe we can agree on a standard Subject
line.

mdadm-udeb has to be pushed into testing at the same time.

Yes, tested by various people.  There was just someone on IRC today
for whom it worked.
