Currently I have two security fixes, which are two months old. Nobody
does the needed testing. The karma isn't reached. Nobody ensures that
they enter the stable updates repo even with 0 karma. Meanwhile, F21
has reached end-of-life without anyone making sure to do a last push
of security fixes for it. If I had not released any fixes, nobody would
have reminded me. In other cases, there have been CVE tickets in bugzilla
filed by the security team from Red Hat with nobody working on fixes for
Fedora, not even sending reminders. We need more thinking humans to make
the right decisions. Look at the age of updates in the updates-testing
reports! This is crap 2.0

that may all be true - BUT i have zero understanding for cases where i make a distr-upgrade, start as usually "fedora-easy-karma" and find a ton of "this package could be pushed to stable if the maintainer wishes" candidates

and for "There are maintainers, who dislike a lot of things related to the release processes. They consider bodhi a pain to use. They would prefer doing things differently, with less work, and more like fire'n'forget as how they do it within Rawhide" than frankly what's the point of prepare a update when one don't care about it? it's not a matter of like or disklike - it's a point of responsibility
