All maintainers are expected to be cognizant of release-critical bugs in their packages, especially during a freeze! You snooze, you lose. If you don't have time to use your MUA's "message text search" function to find your name, let alone read the very few messages that ever get posted to -devel-announce (though the signal/noise ratio is worse thanks to people like you who spam that list with inappropriate messages), then perhaps you don't have time to be a package maintainer. > on a side note, what is the final desicion on console-apt, will it be > reintegrated into potato as was promised, or will we have to wait for woody > for it ? My impression was that once the Release Manager has removed a package from frozen due to RC bugs, there is no return. Again...you snooze, you lose. Maintain your packages conscientiously or suffer the consequences. -- G.
