Packages updates on REVU

Hello MOTUs and MOTU hopefuls,

As you certainly noticed, the list of packages waiting on REVU is 
really, really long. I've reviewed a few and the update to gutsy is 
needed for all of them (only a one line change in the changelog, but 
needed). It'd be nice if  people having  packages on REVU could update  
the distro target.

Also, a lot of packages have been commented by reviewers but not updated 
by the uploaders. Could we define some kind of policy about what we 
should do with this packages? My guess is that we should mail the 
uploader directly (not only a message on REVU or on this list) to ask 
him what he intends to do with the package. This would allow us to clean 
the list, and other packagers to grab the package and finish it if the 
initial packager don't want / can't work on the package anymore.

Thoughts?

Cheers,
Gauvain
