Yes, that would be nice, but there are still open questions to solve, e.g. how do you assure that the tag actually builds? This is why we require at least one binary package with an upload, so that the build daemons don't have to rake through broken packages and their admins get annoyed. I've raised this issue many times in the last 8 years. ;) My last coherent writeup was http://madduck.net/blog/2005.08.11:rcs-uploads/, and if you have any new ideas, please let me know! When I finish with my research in the weeks to come, I plan to set up an amd64+i386 build daemon which can build your packages from source. Then we can investigate this further. -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madd...@d.o> Related projects: : :' : proud Debian developer http://debiansystem.info `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck http://vcs-pkg.org `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems
