I think that we should skip 2.1 in sid or experimental. We are having a deal of a time as it is with 2.0.2. We need to decide what is in sid either 2.0.2 or 2.1.x. IMHO I would setup a non-offical apt-repository and host 2.1 for those who wish to use 2.1 and keep 2.0.2 in sid/experimental. if i am not mistaken even releases ie 2.0 2.2 are suppose to be the "stable" releases. therefor 2.1 2.3 ect should not go into sid as sid is to become a stable distro release. Just my 3 cents. -- Sean Harshbarger
