I'd also like to point out that a quick succession of "commit, request
build in wiki, built and published" makes extras-commits list useless.
Once built and published, any comments would be too late. Before
requesting a build, better give your package changes another look and
test-build them in a clean environment, too. It's not like version
upgrades and major package changes require urgent builds. Waiting a day
and giving list observers the chance to comment on changes would be better
in the beginning.
