Huh? AIUI, there are three options: go straight to unstable, use "foo2" package names in unstable, or use a staging area. Jeff Waugh objects to the first option for good reasons, you object to the second for good reasons, and no one has any major problems with the last option whether they might prefer something else or not. So let's just do the last option, which doesn't cause any major heartache for anyone, and stop debating it. If we can get a consensus -- ie, find a solution that everyone can agree upon without major issues, even if they might, personally, prefer something else -- then that's *ideal*.

Well, no, it's not, since Jeff Waugh still thinks that's a stupid idea, and we've worked out a better one.

If it is, then _nothing_ needs to be changed at all, and it's just a matter of focussing on fixing the packages to everyone's satisfaction.
