What is the collective opinion about a wider dissemination of
one of these sweet point releases? I package Gnus for Debian, and
the official Gnus package is for version 5.8.8, released on Jan 4
2001, and it lacks lots of nifty things that have been developed in
oort.
Also, emacs21 comes with 5.9.0, and I've been deluged by
questions why the supposedly more up to date stand alone version is
older than the bundled version (which caused a flurry of problems
until the packaging was corrected).
However, I from the last time I packaged a development
version, I know better than to just silently do so ;-(
Are we close to the end of the oort arc, or could we have an
interim semi-stable release that can be packaged in the meantime?
