Hello All,
while preparing an upload of gcc-2.95 which fixes its worst problems
I wondered how many users of it are actually left. 9 packages in
unstable still declare a build dependency on gcc-2.95 or g++-2.95,
this makes it IMHO a plausible release goal to get rid of 2.95
maintenance for etch.
The appended list gives a short overview of what needs to be done
to achieve this. Please tell me if I missed or misunderstood something.
