Someone from security (stable updates) team I guess?

</I>
So who decides to reject an update and at what point? According to your
proposal, either QA people decide this or they waste time on updates that
later get rejected.

</I>
What does 'QA validation' mean exactly, can only certain people do it...?

</I>
So a packager wants to fix a bug in package that is not very visible,
sends it to QA, then has to test it anyway? I'm not sure what you're
saying here.
