I don't like automatic system without possibility to have human overide.I want to be able to upload packages in unstable also if there are errors on some architectures, but only on very EXCEPTIONAL cases.
OT: In testing happens that a packages will not uploaded in testing because package is "buggier", but often the it is buggier because it is in unstable for a long time. You could not tell (AFAIK) that a bug was also present in the old testing version, but passed unnoticed.
For this reason, I would like that smarted people (vs "stupid" script [Stupid from KISS definition]) can eventualy overide/upload packages in unstable. Surelly we need a strict policy about when and how it is allowed.
