Sparc is also still on that bug, and according to the council decision I
sited, these arch's are still treated like major arch's.
Wrt your comment about x86 and amd64 having agreements that maintainers
can stabilize packages on those arch's, I thought amd64 did, but I
didn't know about x86.
Formal policy says that all stabilizations must be done by arch teams
unless you have special arrangements with them [1], so my questions
still stand.
1. Should we make it policy that maintainers can stabilize packages on
arch's they have access to?
2. See Rich's message in this thread for my other concern; he spells it
out pretty well -- what should we do about architectures the maintainer
does not have access to?
3. Also, another interesting question has come up in this thread, that of
non-binary packages. Should we give maintainers the option of
stabilizing them on all arch's themselves?
