Ideally some combination of time/feedback would seem to be the way to go. My fear is that if we require people to give feedback about something that's working, it won't happen and the package will rot in testing. 14 days is fine for moving things over I think, assuming no negative feedback is given.
+1
Or make that "+1/2" - no negative feedback doesn't mean, that someone tested it and the package didn't break his system, it could also mean that no one tested it. So there should be at least some form of positive feedback, just to make it clear that someone else than the packager *did* successfully install that package.
I can see that as a problem too ... so there should be some kind of discussion on IRC in #centos-devel.
2 weeks seems OK for me for new programs that we haven't provided in the past.
For CentOS-4 at least, I think either Karanbir, Pasi, or I will be the one that moves it over to production ... and that one of us has personally tested it. I have zero problem with that for CentOS-4.
