Hi,

It's been a while, so I can't remember clearly, but IIRC at the time I
reopened it it was not marked as such on the upstream website or release
announcement[1]. I had meant to send an explanatory note, but I see now
it never hit the BTS... oh well. Feel free to reclose it. FWIW, I've
been using 0.8.x for a while, and while I'm happy to accept the loss of
stability I can agree that it's not ready for a stable release yet (and
ubuntu was insane for including it).

Thanks,

Bryan
