Enrico's idea is nice, but rather not workable in real life as it's the maintainers who start transitions, not the Release Team. The current proposal would only list transitions that are tracked by the Release Team: someone of the team has to be available, has to track that particular transition and bother to get packages rejected for that transition... > It has been denied from RM team side already :( > > 1. http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2007/12/msg00125.html > > Personally I like the idea.
