Hi all.
I agree:
* we need a better classification system to prioritize the importance
of bugs (I still think the Debian approach is a good one)
* we need someone managing the bug queue, particularly during the
freezing period, but also outside it
* we need some more efficient decision system.
All in all, this boils down to investing some resource to support key
roles. I'd suggest to send the OK straight away for an extra 2 days of
bugfixing for both Martin and Juergen, and discuss the issue in the
next PSC meeting.
All the best.
