Hi,

I would like to add alpine to the extra repo where it will replace
pine which is no longer being developped. Reference: FS#9040.

+2, the second for encouragement!

Can we leave pine there too for a little while until people have had a
chance to transition?

I don't see the need: pine is no longer being developped, so there will
be no updates. People who already have it installed will need a
transition, people who don't will immediately start with alpine. A
package in the repository is no longer needed.



If it would be better, I could add alpine to testing first with the
replace line in and keep pine in extra.  And after 1-2 weeks , move alpine
to extra and remove pine.  That might ease up the transition but I agree
with Thomas here.

I agree with you two as well. pine users should know what they're
doing anyway, so a transition shouldn't be hard



Should alpine go straight in extra or in testing first?
