Thanks for the answer, Josh, because I just wanted to ask the same
question.

What is the status of the automatic signing server? I think we really
need it because things need to be predictable for package maintainers.
Some updates are processed after a day, others not for two weeks.
Especially at release time this is annoying as some of the packages I
submitted were bugfixes I wanted to be in the Xfce Spin. Another package
was renamed, if it got pushed in time this would have happend smoothly
between releases.

So any chance we get a more reliable push mechanism?
