I was actually thinking about this yesterday, wondering why it hadn't moved forward. I've continued using version 3 without any problems whatsoever, and that includes in mixed 2.6 and 3.0 environments. I will point out a couple of things. The work that Chris Coulson did was for version 3.0.3. Currently 3.0.4 is available in Jaunty and 3.0.5 was released Dec 28th and is in Debian Sid. Looking over the bugfixes for 3.0.5 I'd say it might be worth trying to get 3.0.5 into Jaunty and then backporting that into hardy (and possibly intrepid if people are interested).
