Ah.  Excellent.


Please do tell me if some similar arrangement is wanted for Debian bugs.  
The Alioth list should be pleasant to subscribe to not only for Debian 
developers but also for downstreams of Debian, who may not be interested 
in tracking all Debian bugs (like I do not track all Sugarlabs bugs).

Actually Debian have only abandoned 0.82 so far: As currently laid out, 
Squeeze will ship with both 0.84, 0.86 and 0.88.

Great!
