? What do you disagree with? I didn't say upload of random binaries should
be allowed..

I just said that there are buildd admins/porters who are hard to deal
with because they just don't care about build failures not caused by
the package to be built and neither with any package else but by
buildd/machine/arch issues.

At which time it'll get even more funny when buildds don't try to
build stuff - and yes, even security buildds. You really believe
a DSA is possible nowadays without uploading handbuilt binaries? Then
you haven't seen reality.
