I'm not arguing against that.  I agree with it.  Please stop trying to
hijack this and divert attention away from my point.  I'm asking
nicely :)

I'm asking that you assume any support burden that you create.  It only
seems fair.

If you're in an arch team, the package maintainer doesn't agree that the
package should be stable, and you're not willing to take on the support
for that package either, don't stabilise it.  We shouldn't stabilise
packages where no-one's willing to support it.

That's all I'm asking for, to go into the GLEP.  It's no big deal.  If
the arch team believe that know better than the package maintainer, then
they must know enough to be able to support it, no? ;-)

Best regards,
Stu
