[Roland Mas <lolando@debian.org>]

Hi release team,

  I would like to request a freeze exception for the gforge package.
Version currently in lenny is 4.7~rc2-3, and 4.7~rc2-4 has been
uploaded to unstable with the following debdiff:

`----

  The bug had only been reported to me on IRC and not through the BTS,
but it fixes a rather embarrassing bug in the Subversion plugin: the
instructions displayed mentioned that authenticated SVN had to go
through WebDAV, whereas the actual configuration set up by the package
was to only do it through SSH.  Since the change is rather
non-intrusive, could it be accepted into lenny?

  Thanks,

Roland.
