I doubt that that BR deserves an RC severity to be honest.

Sure. I know the team is somewhat understaffed when it comes to general 
issues like this. They'll probably get around to it with the next 
scheduled upload.

I personally think that just sending a polite reminder to the BR or trying 
to ping someone on IRC (#debian-kernel surprisingly enough) would likely 
be more effective than posturing on this list.

Note: I'm not a member of the kernel team, although I have worked fairly 
closely with them over the past couple of years.
