The proposal here is only to abolish AUTOkarma, i.e. to require the
maintainer to manually push the update even if it has enough karma. In other
words, remove the "[ ] Enable karma automatism" checkbox and the 2
thresholds that go with it from Bodhi. (Just ensure that non-critpath
updates can always be manually pushed once they get a karma of +1, because
last I checked, this was STILL broken in Bodhi and required changing the
stable threshold to 1 to be able to push the update.)
This is not about the policies to not allow the maintainer to push without
karma, though I happen to think those should also be abolished. (If you ask
why: Because I think the maintainer is better placed to judge the quality of
his/her update than an arbitrary number of people with nothing more than a
FAS account. Feedback from the testers should only be informative.)
But again, I think that even with no other policy change, just removing the
"karma automatism" misfeature from Bodhi would be an improvement.
