Yes. Actually a source+binary upload. > * If successful, that upload will enter Debian ‘unstable’. Yes, but you could have targeted "experimental" instead. > * Because that upload was a binary upload, it cannot enter Debian > ‘testing’. Yes. > Is any of that incorrect? > > How is a NEW upload meant to migrate to Debian ‘testing’? See https://wiki.debian.org/SourceOnlyUpload . In short, there is a longstanding limitation that arch:all packages cannot be binNMUed. For now, doing a source-only upload after passing the NEW queue when your package generates arch:all packages is the only choice. Personally I am in favor of frequent uploads and rebuilds, so I don't see it as a major inconvenience. Anyway, eventually we all want to see this limitation solved on the FTP Masters side.
