the Debian Jessie freeze is going to happen on November 5th[1] and the migration time from unstable to testing is now 10 days. That basically means unless you have a final 2.5 (or at least some RC[2]) at the end of the week (26th October), it's not going to be included in Jessie. I don't see that as a big problem, since we can easily provide a 2.5 in debian-backports and the Ken's version I have in unstable seems to be pretty stable. 1. https://release.debian.org/jessie/freeze_policy.html 2. I can push smaller changes via stable-package-update, but that means those changes needs to be small and isolated enough.
