And another thing. Will package maintainers be aware of the second

Secondary arch teams will get failure notifications. If a build fails on
a primary arch it must fail on secondary archs. if a build fails on a
secondary arch then it will not affect the primary arch.
Sure. But what if it works fine on primary arch(s) and doesn't on
secondary arch? If the pkg maintainer isn't aware of this problem, he
will never exclude this arch and will - every time he requests a build -
enqueue a package that will not work on the secondary arch... Or will
the secondary arch teams be allowed to exclude packages that do not
build? This means, that secondary arch teams must be (cvs commit)
allowed to every project...
for a package to be excluded on an arch it must be signed off by all arch
teams. if it fails on an arch the secondary arch team needs to fix it so
that it works. they can ask the maintainer to help.
OK. Got the rules :-)
