The idea behind the program was to extend it to all architectures. I'm sure every architecture has at least one or two users that provide very good feedback and are willing to help, but aren't necessarily able to dedicate the time to being a full-fledged arch developer. An AT basically has elevated privileges in bugzilla, allowing them to make changes to bugs to allow their respective developers to get work done easier and quicker. http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/amd64/tests/index.xml?part=3D1&chap=3D1 This idea really should be extended, as it seems to have had very positive results with the amd64 team. --=20 Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Strategic Lead/QA Manager Games - Developer Gentoo Linux --=-IPLzXm/ZB3rFZg6QKSkN Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBClH9lkT4lNIS36YERAoeBAKCeJqbhhVG4PgDRtgcsDRDNV3yQNwCgnkeh InpTynGc8EIKJk/e+ceNerU= =S+Tu -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-IPLzXm/ZB3rFZg6QKSkN-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
