Jumping in late here... obviously there are some concerns /cancelling/ the push. What about improving the tools so that such updates don't get pushed in the mass pushes but simply flagged as needing review? That way rel-eng could know to actually look at these instead of blindly trusting the maintainer, that maybe hasn't had time to react. That way if it is something silly, rel-eng can still push it anyway, but there is more chance to catch real problems. This assumes that the % of packages that get negative karma between request and push is low, of course, but I would think that is the case. -- Matthew Please do not quote my e-mail address unobfuscated in message bodies. -- "You ended that sentence in a preposition!" -- Jack O'Neill (from "The Other Guys", Richard Dean Anderson, Stargate: SG1) -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
