Instead of blocking on (lack-of) feedback, I'd suggest considering something like:
- Put pkgs in "testing"
- If no bugs reported after X days/weeks, move out of testing
At least this way nothing gets perpetually stalled in testing.

Just my 2 cents, but I have used some packages in the testing repo successfully. I certainly am not in a position to test them in a large production/enterprise environment and outside of the testing repo I try really hard to stay as vanilla as I can with my boxes. But I'm not certain what I can do except troll this list and say WorksForMe when somebody asks. I wouldn't guess that the signal-to-noise-ratio would be acceptable if everytime I successfully installed and used for a week package x that I post a new thread saying it worked. Perhaps you could find a method of requiring prospective users of the testing repo to subscribe to this mailing list. That way more users would see when a question/poll was asked in regards to a given package.
Just an idea,
Alex
