Let me clarify: You could upload thawab yourself today [1] as long as you make sure to do a full source-and-binaries upload. You won't be able to do a source-only upload until you get confirmation that autobuild has been turned on for thawab.
I could upload othman today (it will need to go through the NEW queue) but I prefer to wait until after you start the autobuild process. That way, we will not have this issue again for othman. [1] https://ftp-master.debian.org/dm.txt Thanks, Jeremy Bicha
