Hi.
As a matter of fact finding.
Russ's message, which Charles sites implies to me that Russ was swamped
and didn't have time to do the commit. By seconding, he had already
done the review.
That's consistent with what he said in this bug about his second (quoted
in my mail to debian-policy last week)
