I suggest removing the `3 consecutive bugfix uploads' from Wichert> that paragraph. Replace it with "no upload in three (months|weeks|)" ? We have to do something about maintainers who are MIA. Just as a sideline, it inflates the number of maintainer and thereby distorts our elaborate "quorum" mechanism. Isn't that even unconstitutional ? ;-) -- According to the latest figures, 43% of all statistics are totally worthless.
