[+1] + vigorous nodding.
Having proven packagers using more their powers seems a good idea in the long run.
( work for the perl-sig, worked for years for Mandriva, and I think if there is issues,
this
could be deal on a case per case basis )
- I'd add, having a way for some provenpackagers of the Rawhide
Swat
Team to temporarily blacklist a (set of) package, if it appears to
significantly break something; so that people doing yum update on
Rawhide won't brick their system because of well know issue waiting to
be solved.
Technically, that could be done by reusing bodhi and enough person to give -1 karma.
Another solution could be a yum plugin that will get the blacklist from the wiki or
somewhere, or that would pull it from fedora-people whatever.
