When the user who reported the bug gets the report that it has been fixed, he wants to download the updated package ASAP. If it takes days or weeks until the package is uploaded and available (two different things), the _user_ will have forgotten all about the bug. This is bad quality, bad PR, and a bad way to do things. Users first. However, if you can get the upload program to do it, great. I've been doing it by scanning the bug list manually before I make a release. OTOH, I have only a few packages. Also note that I'm speaking about generalities -- I know that you don't sit on your package for weeks after you've modified them. :-) -- Please read <http://www.iki.fi/liw/mail-to-lasu.html> before mailing me.
