Why can't we have a maintainer must give explicit clearance to release a successfully built package policy instead of automatically releasing a package? That would mean, a successfully built package would end up in a publically accessible repo (or directory), but maintainers would have to explicitly give clearance for a package to be pushed to the official FE repos. > Though we don't want crap > packages getting through, is the situation all that bad now?
