 Only thing to keep in mind (besides that this response comes after
three and a half year and the suggestion is still not done) that
openjade1.3 would propably need to set an epoch for the openjade package
at least so that it has a newer version than the current openjade(1.4)
package.

 Peter, on a sidenote - do you think slony1 would have less problems
with using openjade1.3 instead of openjade? My quick testbuild on
powerpc made it work, I though have to wait for Aurel32 to give me his
ACK for trying that out on an arm box.

 So long,
