If NEW is the bottleneck for the whole Debian project, as we currently
see it being discussed in debian-devel@l.d.o., I would tend to think
that pushing interdependent packages simultaneously in the queue would
be beneficial to the ROCm-Debian packaging effort.

If we push sequentially without masked time (parallel);
if on average it takes one month to pass NEW for one package;
if hipblas depends on hipsolver depends on rocsolver depends on rocblas
  depends on rocrand depends on hipamd depends on rocr-runtime
  depends on rocm-device-libs;
it would take around 8 months for hipblas to reach experimental!
And then there are the barriers exp => sid => testing => stable...

Being ready to announce an _unstable_ packaging of the ROCm stack
2-3 months after ROCm 5.0.1 releases (bound to happen in the following
weeks), would be good for the mindshare of ROCm in my opinion.

Thank you Etienne, no big pressure - in that it is not a matter
of days/weeks is it!

Best regards, Maxime
