Hi Zygmunt,

I find "python-releases" confusing in the same way.  If I saw

"Bug #xxxxxx is in stable python-releases but fixed in unstable python-releases."

then I'd understand that it was a bug in the python2.7 & python3.2
packages, not a bug in a package called "python-releases".

I prefer a name that doesn't look like the name of another package
followed by the word "releases".  Maybe "python-releaseslog".


Note: I'm not a DD, if no DD is complaining then maybe it's not confusing.

Thanks,
Steve
