Don't mix things. He is happy and we are happy that you work on mips
packages and that you provide patches. He is not happy, and I am also
not happy that you upload binaries to the archive on your own, without
leaving a chance to other porters to have a look first. More importantly
we are not happy at all to see binaries that do not match the sources
in the archive.
He told you so by IRC, I can share the logs if everybody involved allow
me to do that.
