Could you make it 3 or 4 months for sponsored packages? I can see waiting for an upstream fix for that long, instead of bugging a sponsor to "test" a fix, manually or automatically by uploading. Especially when a release has been imminent for some time now.
What do you mean "bounced back out"? Do you mean removed from testing? That seems fine. Justin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
