How about we aim instead at what is reasonable?

I too have an outstanding developer request.

It is for a small and relatively unimportant package.  I've been
told politely there will be no action until after this freeze
and release.

And I'd guess that if I were capable of preparing 
boot-disks-powerpc.144.deb or vax.8mm.deb (you get the idea) 
action would overnight.  A complete PAM package, maybe two 
or three days.  Some new game - see you next year.  I'm 
comfortable with that.
