You can do urgency=low in case you are not confortable enough with a new release, so if you think you can introduce an RC bug maybe low is the right urgency, as you wish :)

I'm a DM, I have alioth access since much time :)


The git repository is:
-unlisted
-outdated (master)

 2013-09-07
-outdated (newmaster)

 lacks of the latest git debian tag -2


I would like to push this change in control file
Vcs-Git: git://anonscm.debian.org/pkg-gambas/gambas3.git

Vcs-Browser: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-gambas/gambas3.git 


But I would like to see it updated prior to do that, to avoid useless merges things

Even upstream and pristine-tar doesn't show the latest source tarball...

People won't notice there is a git of the package unless you don't put in control file (and shows in PTS)

anyway do you know any rationale for not using the current master?


Bye!

Gianfranco
