Apologies, there's been a minor glitch in the transition.

In a few cases, the 'Britney Signoff' field has been filled with a
stale value from the britney results of the ticket that was in your
silo before you.

If you're looking at your ticket, and you see 'Lander Signoff' is
blank, 'Bileto Signoff' has any value (Running/Approved/Failed), and
the 'Autopkgtest Results' field contains links to excuses.html files
that 404, you should just ignore it. It should sort itself out once
you set 'Lander Signoff' to 'Approved' and britney does a fresh run.

Please notify me if you set 'Lander Signoff' to 'Approved' and still
see weird results more than an hour later.

Thanks!
