Hi,

as you might know or not, Debian lenny is frozen atm and new upstream versions 
are normally not allowed anymore to propagate from unstable (sid) to testing 
(lenny), which will become stable soon.

Sadly, only sugar 0.81 is in Lenny atm. 

Do you think it's better to release Lenny with 0.81 sugar or without sugar at 
all? It doesnt really affect serious deployments, as one can always use 
backports.ort or other custom repositories, so I don't think a release 
without sugar would be as bad as it sounds at first.

What do you think? Please, don't discuss debian release policy here, it's 
offtopic and useless. Only the question whether a distribution with 0.81 is 
useful or not shall be the topic of this thread :)

Thanks.


regards,
	Holger
