This is really nice to hear but makes me wonder why he then really let then someone like the xgospel maintainer slip through the process with such a buggy package instead of putting him on hold and make some more test to see if he will produce better package in the future.

I think you are overreacting here. No one said that Martins approch is generally bad, but for Adrian and myself it looks like he's a bit lazy in the task&skill test of the NM. We are both doing work for QA and we see it from the perspective of the QA Team, for which this NMs can create a lot of work which is not needed. So we propose some stricter test to make sure that an NM produces quality package for a quality distrbution. You shouldn't take this to personal, but think a bit more about the quality of debian.
