I guess the problem is that people are now more focused on getting release out than on adding more packages. So for now try to help with that as well, find some RC bug and fix it. Once the release is out, your packages in NEW will get processed faster :-). > 1- If this is normal, or if having to wait for >1 week indicates that the > package has some kind of problem. AFAIR the wait time was most time much above 1 week, it only got improved in last year. Actually see yourself how the size of NEW queue changes: http://molly.corsac.net/~corsac/debian/new/ > 2- In the latter case, do FTP contact you (even by receiving some kind of > REJECT notification), or are you supposed to ask them what's the problem > after some time? You get a REJECT notification or even just a question to clarify some things. -- Michal Čihař | http://cihar.com | http://blog.cihar.com
