If I read the QA doc correctly, what it actually refers to is getting stuff put
into updates-testing, not moved out of updates-testing to updates.
After talking w. some folk in the channel, my understanding is that after 2
weeks, if no one objects, packages should be moved from updates-testing to
updates and released as final.
Unless I misunderstood, it also seems that only one person currently has the
ability to actually do this. And, 2 weeks is also way, way, way tooo long. A
couple days is more like it.
