Given that we managed to get wheezy out, I wonder if anything could and
will happen on this front. The offered help is still available if
needed.
Unfortunately, Christoph's mail[1] from March to the wb-team also went
unanswered. There was this blog posting[2] from Andi about adding
triggers to auto-build, but it seems things still aren't picked up. The
buildd status pages for tmux [3] and [4] seem to suggest that packages
rather get privately built and uploaded to work around this issue (or is
there a different reason that there aren't any logs that I overlooked?),
and actually I'm uncertain whether this is really the way we want to go
in general.

[4] https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=tmux&suite=squeeze-backports-sloppy
So let me re-iterate my question: what is needed to get autobuilding
working for both wheezy-backports and squeeze-backports-sloppy, what is
the specific pain part involved in getting this done, and how can one
help to improve it that we won't have the same painful moments again for
jessie?
Thanks for any response in advance,
Rhonda
