My idea was like
gdal-1.10 in testing (with no RC bugs)
gdal-1.11 in unstable with bug "do not move to testing" severity serious
I can not see why in this case gdal-1.10 should be removed from testing.

If gdal-1.11 would move to testing and this would break some build -
than we would receive some autoremoval bug. My plan was to prevent
this.

To make sure no "does not build from source" bugs we are not under
control will occure in testing.

OK. I was just wondering whether there might be other show stoppers.
