Someone needs to be clear that something is proposed, and that it's being seconded. I don't see Ian either actually proposing it as an option, nor seconding it. As far as I understand, you actually made a different proposal without any seconds. I guess that "is RC bug" overrides the power of a delegate (the release team). The delegation (https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2019/01/msg00009.html) says "Which issues are release-critical (RC)". Kurt
