The package submission & QA process in bugzilla is not complicated and is close to a "simple state/transition-model" already. package request -> QA keyword -> reviews -> PUBLISH keyword -> release manager builds binaries -> PENDING state -> -> packager/reviewer verifies binaries -> VERIFIED state -> release manager publishes binaries -> CLOSED state But none of that gets rid of the reviews, the more complicated and time-consuming part of the process. --
