I'm a bit surprised you haven't heard this before (I don't mean to be
snarky) because I often do see people saying "what happened to my
upload?", and certainly every time I see it myself I wonder what's
going to happen.  Having to wait a while to get a builder is
understandable, but having this relatively long silence is quite
off-putting.  So if something can be done that would be superb.
