I fully agree with "I would love to see". However, I don't see right now
how we can release anything closely resembling the upstream spamassassin
in normal volatile, as this will definitly change the configuration
options. However, changing configuration options is IMHO not ok for
normal volatile.

So, I think we found our first candidate for sloppy, where we could put
appropriate warnings inside the announcement mail.

Andi
