If I'm reading the timestamps right, the non-maintainer release was made just a few minutes after the initial Bug report on the 10th, which you replied to just two hours later. So I'd have to agree that the upload was a bit hasty. It does show everyone's dedication, though, since we're talking 1 a.m and 3 a.m. :-) The drive to get hamm out as quickly as possible is undoubtedly fraying people's patience. But I might have done the same thing, had I been in a hamm-fixing mood that night, because to be equally blunt, you do not have a track record of answering email in reasonable times -- this was unusual. Therfore the long history of NMUs on your packages, and at one point the WNPP had given you up for dead. That said, expecting a reply in a few minutes, at 1 a.m, was a bit much. :-) Perhaps clearer guidelines on this would be useful. --------------------- PGP E4 70 6E 59 80 6A F5 78 63 32 BC FB 7A 08 53 4C __ _ Debian GNU Johnie Ingram <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> mm mm / /(_)_ __ _ ___ __ "netgod" irc.debian.org mm mm / / | | '_ \| | | \ \/ / m m m / /__| | | | | |_| |> < Yes, I'm Linus, and I am your God. mm mm \____/_|_| |_|\__,_/_/\_\ -- Linus, keynote address, Expo 98 GO BLUE -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
