Agreed. Stuffing multiple releases into a single update would make the whole karma/updates-testing thing painful. Maybe the best solution is to make it trivial to "clone" an update for another release ? Or we could have the form automatically clone the update for each release based on the provided builds ?
I might have missed this... What is karma, how do we use it? How do we increase our packages' karma? What is karma currently used for?
It's a simple integer that is incremented/decremented based on if the update works or not for the tester. Right now, when an update reaches a karma of 3, it is automatically pushed to stable.
This mechanism is definitely subject to change over time, so feedback is welcome :)
