I think I'd prefer sourceful uploads for bobcat and ccbuild only, ASAP, then binNMUs, then everyone migrates, then (transition over) you'll be able to deal with new upstream releases without being on our radar. > I hope it won't be too much of a stress for autobuilders to handle all > of these sourceful uploads, once the new bobcat gets built everywhere. No worries. It's not like it's about the kernel or libreoffice. ;) Mraw, KiBi.
