Similar to lucas' mails about packages not getting in testing, here are some suggestions (& scripts) for automatic notifications and other actions for inactive AMs & NMs. On Nov 5, 2007 4:26 PM, NM Front Desk <new-maintainer@debian.org> wrote: > The following applicants have completed all checks but are not > approved by their AM: > > cyril.brulebois@enst-bretagne.fr (asac) Perhaps it would be good to also automatically email these AMs if they stay in the same state for a month or two? After that, the AM could probably be automatically marked as inactive. PS: I would really really like to see KiBi become a DD. > The following applicants are not AM approved but have an inactive AM: > > acs@barrapunto.com (jello) > koster@debian.org.tw (mpitt) Perhaps it would be good to also automatically put them back into 'waiting for an AM'? And at the same time, email them NMs saying that their AM is inactive and they will be put into the 'waiting for an AM' stage again. > The following applicants have been on hold longer than 6 months: Perhaps it would be good to also automatically email their AMs suggesting that the inactive NMs be soft-rejected? Or even automatically soft-reject them? I've attached a few (imperfect) scripts that can be used in the case that FD agree with this. The SQL statements and the notification texts need checking and tweaking. I made them separate scripts so that they can be run at different frequencies, but merging them into weekrpt.pl shouldn't be too hard. Perhaps people will pay more attention to these checks in future if they get personal notifications about them. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
