You are definitely missing the forest for the trees here. In the proposals I've seen, the was no mandate that an update spend a week in testing, provided it got enough karma before that. If the issue at hand is so egregious to need a push ASAP, then there should be plenty of people on hand to snag the update from koji and provide you the necessary karma nearly immediately. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating
