RFS emails and PET



Dear Team members,

You are all aware that we benefit from the very nice PET tool

  http://pet.debian.net/pkg-ruby-extras/pet.cgi

to have a global overview of the team repository. It sorts packages into
categories according to the info it collects from some files.

One of the most important category is the one entitled "Ready For
Upload". A package goes to this category as soon as the suite in the
last entry of the changelog is set to unstable (at least not
UNRELEASED), and is not tagged debian/latest-version.

It is one of the indicators, together with the RFS emails to the lists
for the Debian Developpers of the team to know which packages are ready
for review and upload.

The situation at the moment is that there are 20 packages in this
section, but most of them have not been announced on the mailing list as
ready for sponsorship. Going through a the list today with Paul, we
found that some are not completely ready yet.

Therefore, may I kindly ask you to ensure that if your packages are not
ready to your opinion, the suite in the changelog is set to UNRELEASED?
Once they are ready, change the suite to unstable and send an email to
the list.

This would ensure that the DD have a clear view of the state of the
packages, which is very valuable, given that time is precious and
limited before the freeze.

Thank you very much!

Cédric
