You've reported a large number of "please update" bugs for Debian Rust
Maintainers packages since yesterday. The team is aware that many Rust
packages are outdated because all these packages have working
debian/watch integration and there are trackers that show when
packages are out of date.

I pointed out that the team has been very busy since the freeze was
lifted; we are working hard to catch up. Filing bugs isn't necessarily
helping since it takes extra time and work to handle all these extra
bug reports.

Although you used the word "please", asking for too many things too
quickly can be seen as demanding.

Thank you,
