I'm not so worried about that, because the core GNOME packages are small enough that autobuilding isn't too painful for the stuff that's really urgent, and I don't really want to encourage the war of escalation that is setting everything to urgency=high. Naturally, it's up to the GNOME maintainers what they want to do. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
