<PRE>Le mardi 6 d&#233;cembre 2011 00:29:03, Anssi Hannula a &#233;crit :
&gt;<i> &gt; Using a separate branch is also a cleaner way of providing
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; backports, and makes it easy to separate changes needed only
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; for Cauldron (or backports).
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Hm, how does this help with enabling backports (i.e. compared to simply
</I>&gt;<i> using cauldron repo)?
</I>
The current system needs a rework to be able to accept packages submitted from 
cauldron to 1/backports_testing while forbidding submit from cauldron to 
1/updates_testing

Back in september I had proposed 2 solutions :
- the current proposal from tmb, which I support (but which requires a change 
in the policy as it is currently defined)
- allowing to submit anywhere from cauldron (and have QA verify that the 
packages have been submitted from the right branch, and burn publicly 
packagers who submit from cauldron to updates_testing)

Both would require little tweaking to the build system.
