What makes one package more critical than another?  How ambiguous could
this be?

I agree that this would complicate the process further.

I have proposed something simpler, and still do:

1) every package, even without any VERIFY QA votes at all, will be
   released automatically in X weeks (suggest: X=2).

   exception: at package PUBLISH time, the packager and/or publisher,
   if they think the changes are major enough (e.g., non-QAed patches
   etc.), they can specify that the package should not be
   automatically released.

2) negative reports block automatic publishing.

3) positive reports can speed up automatic publishing (for example: 2
   VERIFY votes --> released within 1 week, all verify votes:
   released immediately after the last verify)


Pekka, I've proposed (1, 2) before... That's why I've moved my last remaining FC1 systems to testing - I've just not had problems with the updates, and I'd rather run a secure but occasionally unstable system than an insecure but "stable" one.

Then why are we having this discussion? I thought that the issue
was that "testing" wasn't being actually tested.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
