Outline
A policy to govern the movement of packages from [testing] into the main repositories.
Accepted
This policy was officially accepted on 2011-08-16, mailing list discussion here.
Policy
Packages to test
- All updates for [core] packages must go in [testing].
- Any updates for [extra] packages may go in [testing].
- Any packages built automatically must go in [testing].
Testing procedure
When a package has been placed in testing, it must remain in testing until it has received two signoffs. Unless the package has been built and uploaded automatically, the packager counts as a signoff (it is assumed they tested it first). Therefore, in most cases only one additional signoff will be required.
