Because the Debian release team asked maintainers to slow odwn upstream version bumps as of March 2008. And one of the keys of "try to release Debian on time" is avoiding to go against the release team suggestions. (for instance, the KDE packaging team decided to stick with KDE 3.4 for such reasons) Debian entered the freeze stage for lenny on April 1st. Currenly, only the base system packages are frozen, but the freeze should slowly become stronger (the toolchain should come soon). The current schedule for releasing samba 3.2.0 leaves us quite a chort time before the planned release and, with the current manpower we have in the Debian maintenance team, I don't feel comfortable going to 3.2.0 now. That's a very though decision, indeed. I somewhat feel like Steve Langasek will agree (actually he didn't disagree when I proposed this in ou internal mailign list....while he may be too busy with the Ubuntu release). Of course, I'm ready to hear arguments against that decision... -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
