Hello Everybody, I would like to discuss the idea in the subject. The currently defined rules say that the package shall only be backported from Testing. However, Testing mutated to Frozen ATM. Any my gut feeling says that this is going to be like the Wheezy freeze (or even like the infamous Woody freeze that "never ended" and you ended up with 1.5 years old upstream versions released as "stable", ROTFL). Therefore, can we probably relax that basic rule of backporting and allow packages to satisfy fewer requirements? Something like: * Package X has to be in Sid for min. 20 days without any new upstream specific bug repors * Package revision X-Y has been in Sid for min. 10 days without new packaging related bug reports Best regards, Eduard. -- Atheismus ist keine Philosophie, er ist noch nicht ein mal eine Weltsicht.
