I wonder if it wouldn't be more prudent (okay, more conservative and a bit more careful, yes, but still IMHO more prudent) to wait until the packages are actually accepted, not just in NEW :) Just in case they are rejected for some difficult-to-fix reason and it takes time to resolve it. At least that's what I've gathered from the policy on the -mentors list; most sponsors seem to frown upon maintainers submitting packages that need other packages that are still not in the archive proper. Of course, with the sponsors in our team and with the level of careful checking and attention they give each package before uploading it a rejection from NEW should be extremely rare - and here's a great "thanks!" to the pkg-perl sponsors :) But still... well, I don't know, I personally tend to wait until the dependencies are actually accepted :) G'luck, Peter -- Peter Pentchev roam@ringlet.net roam@space.bg roam@FreeBSD.org PGP key: http://people.FreeBSD.org/~roam/roam.key.asc Key fingerprint FDBA FD79 C26F 3C51 C95E DF9E ED18 B68D 1619 4553 Nostalgia ain't what it used to be.
