I was thinking of 24h, in which case it's perfectly justified to be notified. Anyway I settled for printing the DLA date. Spurious notifications waste time, we better fix them. (I also dislike when debwatch mails me about a new upstream release while I'm upstream and I already uploaded a Debian package ;)) > p.s.: as an after thought re: "don't harass me" (though I get it was a > joke, but I think the joke conveyed a useful notion): maybe my semiautomatic > mails should have a permanent disclaimer that being 'called out' by them is > nothing bad and doesn't deserve any explaination, just fixing?

Whether the e-mail is from a human or from a machine, whether it has a disclaimer or not, it's never pleasing to be called out. We better do it only when there's a valid reason. Which I think is the case for the prior parts of the weekly e-mail. Cheers! Sylvain
