It would be nice if someone gave direction for a sprint in which we have a group start with sid, a group with jessie and perhaps another with wheezey on virtual machines. Then in week one we work through the "Outstanding Important - Unclassified" to classify them either by marking as upstream, wontfix or reproducible. Then work on the next set. Perhaps make it the first week of each month to do the same thing?
I've been wondering how much automation is surrounding the whole packaging process? I've not yet found a code review for the packaging process. It appears to rely on packagers testing and hoping that others also test:
I was hoping that a system that automates building the package, installing it and then throwing up any warnings from the install process, possibly for x86 and amd64, however I've not yet bumped into anything.
These are just some of my work in progress thoughts so far. I've not discovered everything about debian yet, but I am getting to understand things a little better each day.
