Right now, Todd is in charge of uploading new releases. I have
1.2.47 ready and would like it in unstable soon, but I have been on
the road and not able to link up with Todd.
Thus I want to ask here about ideas how to handle releases in the
future. Would a working model be an announcement if the intent to
upload to the mailing list, and then a release a couple hours later?
How many hours?
Cheers,

In the past, we've subjected major changes to some testing (via private apt repository) before uploading, though our recent patches have been minor, mostly involving rule tweaking. That said, of course the best testing is to get it out to unstable. For minor changes, I'd be happy with something involving "release" in the subject 2 hours before upload. Major changes to the code/scripts should get some testing first, I'd prefer 24 hrs. Oh, and feel free to add yourself to Uploaders: if you've not already.
