* Roland Mas | - Assuming porting teams haven't left in disgust, they still do their | porting jobs and submit bugs and patches. These patches are very | likely to rot in the BTS, since the maintainer is now able to *say* | "go away, you're not released, you don't interest me" instead of | just thinking it and quietly ignoring them. Where's the incentive? | The package migrates to testing anyway.
FWIW, most of the patches I've seen sent in by the AMD64 porting team has been applied quickly, so even though the maintainer might have been able to say «go away, you're not a port yet», they haven't. -- Tollef Fog Heen ,''`.
