Hey,

Dunno who rejected that upload so comment on the list, is there an issue 
to accept several versions at once? What happened there is that somebody 
else uploaded a new revision while mine was in the queue, so I guess 
whoever dealt with those accepted the new one and rejected the previous 
one, which is fine but:

- the change I did was never advertised on -changes (which means people 
who use the list to track what is changing get confused)
- if there is any bug that should have been closed with that upload if 
wouldn't have been closed
- the uploader gets a rejection mail with explanation which is confusing

We could say that uploaders should check the unapproved queue before 
uploading a new revision of something in the queue and use -v, but 
wouldn't it be simpler to just accept both versions and let launchpad 
deal with the builds?

Cheers,
