May be you forgot to push. I now received
commit e5292af2136df30df8ea2a0da0dbeba6b82b027b (HEAD -> master, origin/master)

Added RRID to metadata
which has the values you are mentioning. This was not available in the public
repository (at least until 1st of April).

I admit I do not like this. The thing is that the maintainers of the
repository could have updated their data. Recent development shows that
this is a very probable action these days. I do not think that the fact
that we have checked is no information which is valuable for a random
visitor of the tasks page and it might be simply wrong since the data
were updated. So I keep on thinking that 'NA' is not anything
interesting for the page. For us as developers we can easily do
grep -w 'NA' */debian/upstream/metadata
if we want to find the information.

Sorry, I do not understand this.

We are intuitively doing it in close to all of our packages but
specifying it explicitly in policy makes sense, definitely.

Why not asking for membership in Debichem and commit directly?

There is a daily cron job parsing Salsa directories. I do not keep
track on the information when this job is finished. The UDD importer is
reading the result of this job later and I also do not keep track when
this job ends. So we have two uncertain times - the only time that can
be safely displayed is when the web pages are displayed which is done on
the bottom line. I admit that I'm not very motivated to make some
effort to keep track of the other times compared to other tasks on my
desk.

I have no idea how this can happen. I do not use the web interface for
editing package data.

I'd love if we could find some default channel for Debian Med news (and
a person who feels dedicated to feed this channel regularly).
Kind regards
