Updates and delays in signing packages

Hi,

I have a concern with the recent delays in signing packages and how best
to handle that. I maintain Gnote in Fedora. This is very actively
maintained and has frequent releases, even weekly. It is also a rather
young project (original release in Apr 1) and I do get bug reports on
crashes and other issues that are better fixed quickly. I prefer not to
push things directly to stable repository. With the recommended time of
7 days in updates-testing and the delay in signing the package for that
and signing it for updates repo, the package gets obsoleted by Bodhi
with the next release update.  What would be the best way to handle this?

Rahul
