Well, we appear to have two options. We can (1) leave the development
release in an unreadable directory, as it is at present; or (2) move the
development release back into a readable directory, making it clear that
it's still under development.
Personally, I prefer (2). I don't want to make the development release
inaccessible or even hard to get. I want to make sure that everyone (who
knows what they're getting into!) can get it and install it. The current
situation doesn't allow that, as a number of people have complained about
on debian-user.
I'll give people another day or so to comment on this. If there are no
serious objections during this time, I'm going to move the release back
into /debian.
I didn't want to do this over the holidays, so it won't be happening
until this Friday. (I'll make an official announcement later today,
so that mirror sites can be prepared.)
