I'm confused now. Arent these two bugs requirements to implement 1) and 3) from Raphael's BoF summary: 1/ the ftpmasters would reconfigure the suite to drop the "policy queue" in front of the repositories so that uploads are immediately accepted exactly like the current squeeze-lts repository (Ansgar told us this was easy to do) This solves problems 4 and 1 because LTS members no longer need shell access if there is "approval" step in the workflow. 3/ the ftpmasters will fix dak to also send the ACCEPTED mails to the person who signed the upload (this was already part of their plans even before this discussion, this now gives them one reason more to actually do it before the Wheezy LTS period start, aka in February 2016) > That plan was mentioned during the DebConf BoF, but I'm not aware that anyone > is working on that and I'm unsure whether it's feasible to implement > in time? > Especially since even far simpler changes like the two mentioned above are > open for quite a long time. I'm happy to help here but besides setting up my own dak and testing the provided patches I'm not sure how. Cheers, -- Guido
