To the OP: yes, I thought about this. Haven't decided yet. It
would interest me, but I don't have much time these days (I code
for a living), and there are longer phases like now, when I
don't even use Linux (and thus not WM) at work. Point is, I
don't want to be a bottleneck. Therefore if there is somebody
with the appropriate skills and willing, I won't mind (and will
gladly give a hand when necessary).

Concerning releases: I think there's a number of arguments for
having releases. The way the stable 'crm' branch is maintained we
can just say that's version xyz and changes to it are merely
bugfixes (i.e. minor releases).

The 'next' branch, the way it is used now, is practically
'experimental', again no problems, we take snapshots now and
then. 

Now we 'just' need to answer the question on how we get features
from 'next' to 'crm'. Maybe we need an integration branch from
which we merge revisions into 'crm' once they have been tested
long enough? This would go well enough with Debian's policy, we
would put a lower version into 'testing' and a slightly higher
version into 'unstable'.

Cheers,

M'bert
