[01:02] <sney> I have a new upload for hexchat that will satisfy LP:1396871, but I'm splitting up the package layout and apparently that means it'll have to go through NEW. I've heard that's slow currently - is that accurate, and is there any way to expedite the process?
[01:03] <tumbleweed> sney: any reason that can't go through Debian?
[01:04] <sney> erm, probably not. brain fart
[01:04] <tumbleweed> (experimental, presumably)
[01:04] <tumbleweed> NEW is currently not that pretty https://ftp-master.debian.org/stat.html :(
[01:15] <Noskcaj> sney, You may as well make a merge request for ubuntu, but try for debian experimental too
[11:49] <Mirv> Debian's NEW has often been understaffed, but still that should not usually be too much of a reason to do Ubuntu-only upload
[11:51] <Mirv> hmm, well, another small obstacle is that hexchat is not LowNMU and has only a single maintainer, not a team (packages in Debian tend to be more strongly attached to specific maintainers than in Ubuntu)
[11:51] <Mirv> ah, but, hexchat is at least in collab-maint git in Debian which is nice
[12:24] <Unit193> Mirv: sn ey is that one maintainer though. ;)
[12:24] <Mirv> Unit193: ok, that changes the picture somewhat :D
