This is a reasonable concern, but the standing policy is that if a package is RC-buggy, it's a candidate for removal from testing at any time. We would like to get notices to maintainers set up, but in the majority of cases the presence of an RC bug on the package is already ample notice. -- 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/
