Perfectly reasonable. > in other words, arch teams generally defer to maintainers (and rightly > so) as to when newer versions should go stable I agree that the arch teams shouldn't be marking packages stable in advance of when the the maintainer thinks it's ready. At the same time, it's the respective arch teams, as "owners" of their entire stable tree, who (in my opinion) should have the final "okay" on a package going stable, since they're the ones with experience of the entire stable tree.
