Right. Just to avoid misunderstandings: I was not talking about what a 
user should do, I addressed what should happen on the cvs *server*. The 
point I try to make is that the current stable tree will have to die and 
be replaced by the content of unstable-pangocairo-branch when this is 
merged back into the main branch. Keeping the stable tree and letting it 
fall further behind, which will be greatly accelerated with the 
pangaocairo deployment, would be a fatal mistake.
