Hi everybody, i've got an idea, what do you think about asking for a virtual package qa.debian.org like ftp.debian.org that could be used in the BTS ?
It could be used to send bug reports with QA things to do and QA related problems. For example, imagine that I remark that package XX is not maintained, then I send a bug report against qa.debian.org about this and I CC the maintainer concerned, if he replies then his response will be stored in the BTS and we'll be able to close the bug report when we reached a decision about what doing with the package (orhaning or not). Without response, we'll be able to check old bug reports (the age of a bug report is given on the bug list) and take a decision when 30 days (for example) have elapsed. This system could be used by our user to denonciate "packages" not well maintained or "maintainer" who seems MIA, and we'd be able to keep track of what we did. It can also be used as a task list for things that we're currently doing or that we'll have to do. We can use flags in the title to differentiate the things we'll manage with this system. What do you think about this, guys ?
