I wonder if the release team will accept a new upstream release at this point in the freeze.... We're pretty deep into the hard freeze at this point (but I don't have enough insight into how the release team works these days, it seems much more relaxed than in the old times where I was more involved and basically any extra character would get you a NACK, specially an "unneccessary" upstream version number change). Do you have time to do all the work and still accept a potential NO from the release team? Please be honest to yourself. IMHO it feels much safer to just go with a targeted upload (which is now also already approved), but if you feel strongly about it and also think you have time to pursue a new release then just send me a NACK on the NMU (ASAP! I'm ready to upload *now*) and I will not pursue it. > > The past few months have been... quite crazy in my personal life so I > haven't gotten around to doing this as yet.

(I've also been quite busy or the NMU would have happened much sooner in the release cycle.) Thanks for all the work you have had time to do! > > Thanks, > > Chris Regards, Andreas Henriksson PS. Feel free to ignore my NMU and just upload the new upstream release once we're past the freeze/release and the development opens up again.
