I wonder, how is the release team measuring this? For the other ports that you mention, you've pointed to concrete technical problems that are in line with the previously-documented release qualification guidelines. kfreebsd, OTOH, is only listed as having "insufficient install base". But what is sufficient? http://popcon.debian.org/ shows numbers for kfreebsd-* that are greater than a number of our ports. You rightly point out that keeping the architectures in testing has a cost, because the architectures will block testing migration. But are the kfreebsd archs actually causing testing blockages, in practice? If there are such blockages, can you give us more information about how this has been the case?
