Hi Luis,

Please note that "some time in June" is to late to meet the Freeze "in
second half of June".  This in turn would mean another two years of
Debian stable without GT.M (at least).

Sounds good for me and as I said in some other thread we should not use
the upcoming freeze as a big club to push things foreward.  I just want
to make you aware of the situation because we seemed to be *that*
*close* to a solution that it seemed quite probably to meet the freeze
date and now we will miss it with the current schedule.  I'm also a bit
afraid that I need to retitle my talk at LSM:

BTW, would you join me at this event?

Kind regards

        Andreas.
