We need to work out format / policy for pkgs built and hosted in the CentOS Extras / CentOS Plus Testing area -> Stable repository. One option is to move pkgs by Time-Default. Under this setup, once announced in the centos-devel list, after 14 days the pkgs are moved into the stable repositories. The time issue is arbitary, I feel 14 days is 'long enough'. If its too long we can shorten it to 7 days ? Would that give enough time to find major issues ? Second option, would be to raise a bugs.centos.org issue for each pkg - and ask for feedback on the issue tracker. Moving the package from Testing to Stable would required a fixed number of positive responders. eg. 5 people need to confirm it works ? Third option would be to leave it upto the packager / builder to decide when its ok to move things over from Testing -> Stable. However, in lots of cases, pkgers are busy. And to be honest, unless the pkger thinks its OK, the pkg would not be in Testing anyway. I prefer if other people were to be involved in the test process as well. Suggestions ? Comments ? -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219 at icq
