What exactly > about those arches do you think is a problem? The speed at which bugs are resolved is the problem. Keywording/stable bugs can sit for months and sometimes over a year without being touched. Some people think the amount of time some arches lag behind is acceptable, I don't. The primary reason why arches lag is that we don't have enough people doing the testing and keywording. > You should only raise expectations when you know you can follow through, > not the other way around. Raising expectations before being able to > follow through leads to disappointment, which is bad. I think that if we implement my suggestions (drastically reducing the workload), we will be able to meet those expectations. -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
