Does your request for information apply to packages with low popcount
count? If so, then read on…

On behalf of a very very small team, with very few packages: we'd like
to ship Ganeti 2.1 in Squeeze instead of the current 2.0. The delta
between these is big, but as upstream we can confirm that 2.1 is stable
and has a lot of general bug fixes compared to 2.0, and the only reason
why we haven't yet uploaded it to unstable is that we're still debating
the preferred migration path from Lenny's 1.2 to 2.1 (as upstream we
supported only 1.2→2.0 and 2.0→2.1, but we're close to a working
solution for 1.2→2.1 upgrade).

Unless there's any issue preventing this, our plans were to upload 2.1
this coming weekend.

There are some other small incremental releases in the other packages we
maintain, but nothing major there.

thanks,
iustin
