The current process of updating third-party packages is broken:

a) There isn't really anything to review beyond running it on the buildbot
b) Nobody dares to press the "positive review" button
c) Frustation to see your work waste away on trac

for example, out of the last three Gap package updates that I packaged only 
one was ever looked at. So I'm proposing that I'll just merge package 
updates if they *work* as long as there isn't too much wonkyness introduced 
into the build script. If you have any opinion on that, please post in this 
thread :-)

[ ]  Yes, go ahead
[ ]  No, I want to volunteer as the reviewer for package upgrades
