[Ingo Juergensmann] > Why? To make it public what buildd admins are the worst?
To make public the requests made regarding the autobuilders (others can see existing requests, and do not have to send identical requests again), and to make sure the state of each request is available both to the requestor, the buildd admin and the public. It might make the buildd request handling more transparent. After all, it is an official service in Debian, and someone should always give replies to the requests sent to its maintainers.
