Sorry for throwing a stone and not coming back to pick the fight since then ;-) I have been terribly busy with other stuff.

Your beloved users do not deserve that. Ok. But how do you feel about having as the most recommended way to go for our users to be 0.7.2 right now? Remember that Debian is _not_ Debian unstable, and should never be seen as such. Is there value in providing a two-year-old version of Cherokee?

What would you say about continuing as the Cherokee maintainer, but exclusively through an unofficial, always-up-to-date channel, as Leonel is doing? Note that I am _not_ suggesting I want to drop it. However, I fear having users complain about $foo and me not being able to answer. And no, "please update" is not a valid answer. -- Gunnar Wolf • [email protected] • (+52-55)5623-0154 / 1451-2244 _______________________________________________ Cherokee mailing list [email protected] http://lists.octality.com/listinfo/cherokee
