There are rumours that the noticeable multi-week gap last fall when no DSAs were released at all were caused by some buildd failure on one of the lesser-userd arches and the security team decided to defer advisories until security builds could be released for all arches. I have a dedicated opinion about this time of service the major arches received during this time, but I do not want to voice it here as I am only talking about a rumour and I do not want to start yet another flame war.
