Right - And I have been repeatedly complaining about this bureaucracy for
years. Unfortunately nothing has improved. Openly said, I feel Fedora's
bureaucracy is ballooning and has never been bigger.

Exactly. 

Like many other perl modules, Plack has a long dependency chain, which needs to
be kept quite close to "current", otherwise quick responses to bugs aren't
possible. This time, perl-File-ShareDir in fc19 and fc20 weren't new enough.

*I* submitted them a couple of days ago and they are in Fedora's (7 day)
release _delay_ queue.

[BTW: In recent times, the 7 days quite often prove to be 10-14 days.
e.g.
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2014-9066/perl-Mail-GnuPG-0.20-1.fc20]

C'mon, stop cheating.

No-molestation would equal to no additional effort and to complete ignore you.
Distribution-wise, would not change anything.

Do you want me to do this or are you insisting on me reading your mails,
closing the BZ and fill your the form?

Do you notice something? No molestation is different.

Another self-cheat. Just have a look at how many updates I have pushed (I guess
1000s). Hardly any of them has received karma. This karma-stuff is
non-functional non-sense.
