new upload while waiting for "override" edit

[Jay Berkenbilt <ejb@ql.org>]

I recently did an upload (via a sponsor) that introduced a new binary
package and therefore requires the override file to be edited.  In my
experience, this generally happens about three weeks after the upload,
which was done 10 days ago.  Now I have a new version of the same
package.  Would it be better to wait for the override to get edited
before doing a second upload?  My inclination is to wait for fear of
"resetting the timer."  If one of the uploads is to experimental and
the other is to unstable, does this matter?  Thanks for any advice.

(Details: tiff 3.7.0-1 has been in experimental for a while with a few
reports of successful testing and no reports of problems; 3.7.0-2 was
essentially identical but included a new package (libtiff-opengl)
installing the one tool that depends on opengl.  3.7.0-1 and 3.7.0-2
were both really 3.7.1 alphas since they included almost all the
changes that are in 3.7.1.  Now 3.7.1 has been released.  I believe
that it should be okay to upload 3.7.1 to unstable, though I won't do
so without the release team's approval because of the large number of
dependencies in spite of the tiff packages not being frozen.  I'm
wondering whether uploading 3.7.1-1 to unstable now will create a
longer delay than waiting for 3.7.0-2 to appear in experimental
first.)
