Background:
I am the Debian Maintainer for this package and have been since its
inception in 2016.
Upstream has just released v10.7 today. In preparation for this I
have kept Debian up-to-date with
git master builds to allow further testing by Debian end-users to
allow for a much wider testing scope thus assuring for a stable
release. This was done primarily due to the upcoming freeze dates.
The last update to debian was 4 weeks ago. This release primarily
captures the last 4 weeks of upstream work mainly focussed on
providing an API for developers to add capability together with some
GUI refinements & polish. No new end-user functionality was added.
The API changes have resulted in two additional binary packages hence
my request for sponsorship - to review the final release package and
sponsor before uploading to ftp-masters.
Changes since the last upload:
budgie-desktop (10.7-1) experimental; urgency=medium
