Quoting Karolin: > Release Announcements > ===================== > > > This is the first stable release of Samba 3.4.
As of yesterday, Samba 3.4.0 is now available in Debian unstable. It means that the next release of Debian (codename "squeeze", due out...when it's ready, probably around the end of 2010) will have at least this version. Besides everything that's new in Samba 3.4 and which Samba Team members are more qualified than me to talk about, I'd like to point out that, again, the gap between Samba packages in Debian/Ubuntu and upstream code has shrinked again. There is nearly no more code patch in our package that hasn't been integrated upstream. The efforts of the samba package maintainers in Debian are now focused on getting this package to enter Debian "testing", which is what will become the final Debian release. That requires other packages samba is depending upon to enter testing themselves...which might take time..but will happen within the next weeks, I hope. For Ubuntu users, it means that the next Ubuntu release will have Samba 3.4.something. We would like to express public thanks to the Samba Team for publishing such good quality code and very specific thanks to Karolin Seeger for managing to assemble the pieces and succeed in publishing releases on a timely manner, and to Michael Adam for his work work integrating the Debian patches, particularly in the build system. The good work we're (hopefully) doing in publishing packages is because you are doing such good work. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
