As much as I respect you as a packager, we need to do something with
GNOME 2.4. Sitting on our hands until 2.2 has migrated into testing
instead of testing 2.4 *whilst* 2.2 migrates is not an option, as we'll
just be wasting our time.
Experimental is there for Debian Developers to test software, and the
GNOME 2.4 release needs it. I'm willing to NMU your packages into
experimental to help the process along, whilst GNOME 2.2 is coerced into
testing.
