Cool > According your logic about vacation times, the change of the default > version probably should not be done before Easter. I don't know, while some people (including, at least, myself) will be unavailable during Easter to do any Debian work, others might rather have lots of time because of it being a holiday and no daytime job being in the way. Having this change done before easter will leverage both groups of people. But I don't care about the exact timing, but I do think we should really do this sooner rather than later, to get things going. Therefore, I'd like to urge you to simply do the move, and have anyone interested help out fixing up all the packages that get broken by it and need an update. > Unfortunately FTP masters did reject the Zope2.x upload, which uses > python2.4. Any reasons for that? Zope2.7 already was scheduled for > removal. Can you please be more specific? And/or reply to the REJECT mail, as it states at the bottom of every reject? That way, all the info is at hand for us ftp-people to look into it. I can't find any NEW reject for zope2.anything during the whole of 2006. At least listing the exact filename of the .changes is already very useful to find the upload you're talking about. --Jeroen -- Jeroen van Wolffelaar [EMAIL PROTECTED] (also for Jabber & MSN; ICQ: 33944357) http://Jeroen.A-Eskwadraat.nl -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
