Yes, the period of 30 days is the time we should wait before an NMU can
be done, but do we still need to ask the maintainer if we can do an NMU
after this period ?
I think that we should better say something like this :
Once a a patch has been submitted to the BTS, the QA member may announce
his intent to NMU the package to the maintainer, and if he gets no
response within 15 days (this does not count if we know that the
maintainer is absent, if so then refer to the instructions he may have
sent to debian-private before leaving) then the QA member is authorized
to do the NMU.
I personnaly think 15 days is enough. But if the maintainer responds, then
there won't be any problems usually.
Cheers,
