Hi Clint-
Awesome stuff.
As someone who currently seeks sponsorship for uploads I've got one
question. Several times in the last few months, I've proposed a merge
containing packaging changes to a package in the server set with hopes
of getting some peer review from fellow teammates. Before anyone on the
team had a chance to review, the patch pilot on duty reviewed, merged
and uploaded. Given this new workflow, are there any extra steps
needed to prevent that from happening so we can ensure a good peer
review/+1 before upload? Or is specifying 'ubuntu-server' as the
reviewer enough?
Cheers,
Adam
