The issues are really: 1) Are all of the dependencies present already in stable? I'm not sure of the answer here. 2) Does the (busy) maintainer want to move it over? Often maintainers are completely content to leave packages in unstable unless users or developers from the project give them encouragement to do so. -- Alexander Hansen Fink User Liaison ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge This is your chance to win up to $100,000 in prizes!
