As Florian just sent out the arch-dev-public email on this topic (and I can't reply there), I have a couple of questions. 1. What exactly can these users do? I assume simply sign-off as 'works for me' 2. Is there any hard deadline? 3. (related to above) is there any policy as to what specifically a user should have tested before signing off? Starting at least one binary (or all binaries?) etc.?
