i know. it took me 2 weeks to upload the emacs packages... :-(
on the other hand: having two different places where people
move files in the distribution has some drawbacks, esp. if
files have to get moved from one section to another (as the
distribution maintainer decides, eg. think of the hkgerman
package).
if i understand some posts on debian-devel right there is an
upload facility running on a host in the uk (chiark? was it
Ian Jackson who set it up?), which simply forwards uploaded
files to the incoming area on master. if the tu-dresden could
set up such a service, i think this would be a good compromise.
