Should we have a time-based limit?
That is, if a package has been in testing for X days, with no complaints, but no signoffs, yet, can we consider it fully functional, assuming the packager is comfortable with that.
I'd like opinions on this. I'm trying to solve the issue of the big ol' backlog of pending-signoff packages.
I quite like this idea. A "no bug report after given period of time = no problems" strategy should work as the community can do a lot more testing in total than we can.

+1, probably by X days enough enough users have tested the package, and if there are no bugs it can be considered stable.
