Not that I have a big problem with this, but I really think the other way round (gnome-foo2 in unstable, temporarily) gives us a lot more gain: - it's autobuilt, we can work out porting bugs right now, not after we do the final move - ppc, alpha, sparc, etc users can use g2 too. - The archive bloat would just be temporary. When we decide to rename the stuff, the foo2 packages go away. - g2 could possibly enter testing, with foo2 names, getting more testing. - nothing in experimental, which not so many people use. But as I said, if people want to go the other way round, let's do it. I'm a i386 user anyway.
