No. The point is that since the release of Etch, RMs have been allowed to set unblock hints for these packages _without_ consulting the D-I RM. What Otavio is doing here is ending that policy and asking RMs to again wait before unblocking packages with udebs until the D-I RM has verified that that migration will not break the installer in testing (used for example in the weekly CD builds). So this is not about the block hints, it is about the procedure for adding _unblock_ hints for blocked packages that have udebs and that someone wants to migrate to testing (for example because of a maintainer request or for a transition). Hope that explains. Cheers, FJP
