Oh, I see. Do you know why there's already a tag for v2014.7? That's
what led me to believe it was already stable.


 Additionally, I'm not rushing to upload 2014.7 yet - it took 2014.1
 about 9 or 10 point releases to stabilize.

What do you mean with stabilize? Did the point releases introduce such
big changes or fix real show-stopper bugs? Otherwise it would IMHO still
be interesting to have 2014.7 in debian (but that's of course not my
call).


 Separately, a new release for 2014.1 (2014.1.11) is almost ready for
 release. I'll be uploading it as soon as I can.

Cool! Thanks for the work and the heads-up!

 Is there still time to upload the new upstream version before the freeze?

 2014.7 has 40 new modules and 33 new states (judging by the diffs), so it
 might be interesting to have it in jessie.

Although saltstack are likely to have improved their QA recently (new QA
hires) I suspect that 2014.7 will not make it in time for jessie. It could,
but past experience indicates it is not likely.
