There was nothing that had a 3.1 variant that also didn't have at least 3.2. There are still several packages that have 3.2 variants but not 3.3 so we should leave 3.2 alone for now. It's still reasonably modern and is still receiving upstream patches so I don't object to leaving it there but it would help if maintainers could add at least 3.3 variants. Daniel
