backporting community.
Another major feature difference between the squeeze and wheezy versions
of mumble-server, is the ability to password protect conversations (or
whatever the mumble specific term is; my IRC brain reverts to calling
them channels). So in squeeze, if I host a public mumble server, users
can create a separate conversations, but anyone can join. In the version
in wheezy, you can optionally add a password, which can allow for a more
private conversation.
I've thought about backporting it myself, since that feature is pretty
important. I haven't looked at the build complexity at all.
I don't have a ton of time right now, but if no one else bites and I
find myself with the illusive "spare time," I will try to package for
squeeze. Of course, not being a Debian Developer, I will need a sponsor
if I do get around to it.
Happy to help test if someone gets there before me.
Best,
