Dear Maintainer,

I know that Debian is in full-freeze at the current state of affairs
so it probably is not possible to release the just released mate 1.18
on sid/unstable and hence maybe an attempt to release it to
experimental can be made.

The below blog post shares the changes between the new and the old versions -

Also with the recent new build of gtk+3.0 it might also make sense to
have the new release in experimental

https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/gtk+3.0

Looking forward to seeing mate 1.18 in experimental.

There currently is no man power to maintain a second branch of MATE on experimental.

The next upstream releases of MATE will appear in Debian, once the freeze is over. Please let us focus on making MATE 1.16 for Debian 9 ready for release. (I myself need to get back to that task, too. To many other open isssues that have more prio here, right now).

Cheers,
Mike
