I don't mind the process in general, but have some points where it can improve Very often the same update is submitted for several releases, and it's kind of pointless to require full karma in all releases (to require some in each release is ok). If one release has got full karma then it's reasonable to require less karma on other releases receiving the same update. The risk for non-obvious regression for some release only is fairly low, more likely there is very obvious release specific regressions like dependency failures when another package have been split/merged etc and related fuckups. We also need some obvious ways where users in general can subscribe to testing updates of stuff that they care about, to expand the userbase that performs testing of updates. Generally running a system with updates-testing always enabled is scary and not many want to take that leap. But I think that if we could give users the ability to subscribe to testing packages X,Y,Z of their choics and getting update & testing notifications for those packages only from updates-testing would speed things up considerably. In addition the package management & update request process could do with some serious makeover to streamline the process and reduce risk for error, but that's topic for another thread.
