Thanks for the pointer. The bug was posted in March, 2004, when the project was "rapidly maturing". For i386-hurd, we got it in sid *right away*. My advice (which I admit is pointless now) is to get new ports into sid *right away*, as soon as you have a real autobuilder or even just a dozen base packages. That's way too late to ask for adding it to sid. >From reading the bug, in seems that Martin Schulze expressed a concern, it was addressed, and discussion proceeded apace until a month ago. That doesn't seem to me like it warrants a GR. Among other things, the technical committee should be the first line of discussion, and I would rather have the technical committee take this up and make a decision. It seems that all the relevant issues are technical, and that's the group we have to settle such things. It doesn't belong on debian-vote.
