Nico add some more, maybe relevant, juice.

So let me clear this up a bit - there are a few hundred packages still 
needing attention, its possible there is something fundamental that is 
broken - and I am seriously hoping that the work that dozens of people 
have done already and continue to do so ( look at the patch / reporters 
list on bugs.c.o ) against CentOS-6 isnt overlooked. Because they are 
not visible, does not automatically make them irrelevant. If we do hit a 
situation wherein thousands of lines of code need to be reviewed, trust 
me - its not going to be me doing it. Its going to *need* to be atleast 
a few dozen people.

I, for one, am quite grateful to the many people who did actually take 
up the call for help and do something about it.

on the other hand, I'm not getting involved in this thread beyond this 
post, its mostly irrelevant to anything that is going on at the moment.
