 As I was the one ccing arches, I should explain here...humpback has
not reacted on tor bugs for a long time, not even security ones.  So I
did bumps and minor fixes for some time now, including stabilisation
requests.  My only failure here was, that I did not add myself to
metadata.xml.
 My policy is to ask for stabilisation --> no reaction for one week
(if it is urgent), I call arches.

 Here you are right, and I must admit I sometimes only compile-test. I
test everything I can, for special hardware I ask around in the team,
but if there is no one I have no other choice.

 What we propose is proper testing and keywording by anyone
around...not just team members.
