some remarks:
- although I was at the bug squashing party during the Paris Debian
MiniConf I was more productive at home; I guess there was just to much other
stuff to do (like going to talks and meet people) in Paris :)
- still no single complaint for my NMUs; but a few "thank you"s
& some friendly requests to delay/cancel an NMU from active
maintainers
- enrico sent some "should we remove this package from testing?"
mails to several bugs today. IMO that's a great next step that will bring us
closer to the release – grazie!
