Hi everyone,

During the last months we have accumulated quite a few changes and with the 
release of squeeze some cleanup is needed.

The following is what I think is still missing to make a new release:
* Make debhelper 8-related tweaks
* Drop tags/requirement of versioned depends for versions satisfied in 
squeeze.
* Fix #604047

Given the major breakage of overrides, I propose to:
* Introduce a new statically-embedded-library tag for packages that are 
clearly marked as static ($pkg =~ m/-static/ ?) and lower the severity of 
that tag.
* Coordinate with ftp-masters what the list of auto-reject tags will be at 
some point.
* Upload an RC to experimental
* Send email to d-d-a mentioning the breakage

And some time later:
* Upload to unstable
* Coordinate with ftp-masters to re-enable some of the auto rejections.


What do the others think about it?

Cheers,
