More people working on QA is always good. Nice we agree here. One more detail about package removals: As you might have seen there were about 200 removals of 32 bit architectures of r-bioc-* packages and I expect more r-cran-* packages to come. Do you see any chance to automate architecture specific removals, most favourably by dealing with a whole dependency tree. This would probably remove a lot of manual work from DDs as well as your own work. Kind regards Andreas. -- https://fam-tille.de
