I checked the changes in Debian GIS and would like to discuss the
following question since I was observing some resistance of the release
team against to heavy changes in the past.

  1) Do we simply want to re-render which would remove
       gpsdrive, osmosis-plugin-borderextract, gpxviewer, doris,
       snaphu, tinyows, libgeotiff-epsg
     from recommends.
     (I decided for this strategy for the other Blends)
  2) Render the current state of Git and hope that release team will
     also accept new binary packages.
     I remember, that I was optimistic before the freeze but I'm not
     sure any more.

What do you think?

Kind regards

    Andreas.
