No, I don't think trying to track down all the loose ends of a transition this large, and then turning my inbox into a 24x7 request line for upload exceptions, is an improvement over the current process. For that matter, I doubt anyone would have thought to block gcc-4.0 from being uploaded anyway, so the mess would be the same, but with more busy work for the release team... -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world. vorlon@debian.org http://www.debian.org/
