			=== Speed Promotion (alternative) ===
			Alternate suggestion: given that the smallest change by a developer can cause a serious regression, and there's no way round that - is that once a package reaches the "tipping point" (say, 5 days and 8 votes) another version of the package is let into Extras-testing.

			However, people can still rate the earlier version (although not install it) and get it through; whilst the newer version starts its QA process. Obviously if there's a bug, the developer can demote their earlier version and prevent it going through to Extras. --[[User:jaffa\|Jaffa]] 13:12, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
