Whenever somebody of the ftp-master team checks your package, and does the necessary paperwork on it. Usually one to two weeks, but it can be slightly longer. > - A new minor upstream version is available for the package, my sponsor > told me it is better to wait the package enters in unstable before > send the new version, because every upload before this happens "reset > the timer" and I have to wait more time to see my package in unstable. That is only true for unstable -> testing progress, this is _not_ true for NEW processing (what this is). So you can have this uploaded right away, and the newest of the two will apprear in unstable. I don't know exactly, but it might be that there is a potential problem closing bugs with the first upload (both are progressed to unstable simultaneously, and if the older one is refused because the newer one happens to get there first, it's bugs aren't closed). I'm not sure though whether this issue exists. --Jeroen -- Jeroen van Wolffelaar [EMAIL PROTECTED] (also for Jabber & MSN; ICQ: 33944357) http://Jeroen.A-Eskwadraat.nl
