I agree with the w-b maintainers. The queue order is only interesting in the case where there is a backlog; in other cases, packages are usually built rather fast. In the case where there is a backlog, those trying to fix the architecture (usually those that are working on it) should be in charge of deciding what package gets built first, not the maintainer of a random package -- /all/ package builds are urgent if there's a backlog. -- EARTH smog | bricks AIR -- mud -- FIRE soda water | tequila WATER -- with thanks to fortune -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
