Debian's tag2upload considered stable

Sean Whitton has announcedthat Debian's tag2uploadservice is now out of beta and ready for use by Debian developers andmaintainers.

During the beta we encountered only a few significant bugs. Now thatwe've fixed those, our rate of successful uploads is hovering around95%. Failures are almost always due to packaging inconsistencies thatolder workflows don't detect, and therefore only need fixing once perpackage.

We don't think you need explicit approval from your co-maintainersanymore. Your upload workflows can be different to your teammates.They can be using dput, dgit or tag2upload.
