Oh gosh you just triggered my memories of the maemo coding scene. Apps were not sandboxed despite it being a linux device (read: just assign every app its own user...), so to get anything published in Testing you'd wait hours for the build server to tell you that your app did not compile (despite it compiling fine in the SDK) and then a hours to days to get a green light that the app will be uploaded into the repo.
Small changes/hotfixes? Forget about it, same process
