Subject: dch: default urgency to medium

Date: Sun, 24 Nov 2013 11:17:04 +0000

Package: devscripts
Version: 2.13.4
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-release@lists.debian.org

Dear maintainers,

At a recent sprint the release team agreed to reduce the default britney
migration time to just five days. To facilitate this, please change the
default urgency in new changelog entries to medium.

The reason for this, rather than changing britney, is that maintainers
can artificially delay their package back to ten days for changes they
know to be disruptive or in need of longer testing.

Thanks,

--
