I'd expect any sponsored upload to be checked by the sponsoring DD, be it uploads for packages I (as a non-DD) maintain, for NMUs, or for QA uploads. Preparing a (source) package and asking for a sponsor is merely to ease the uploading DD's task, who will rebuild the binary package anyway in most cases. (And if it's a proper NMU, there will be a patch in the BTS anyway.) Christoph -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.df7cb.de/
