You mean that we should not wait for "stable" even-numbered releases and incrementally upload every release? This didn't make much sense in the past, when upstream were releasing identical (say) 0.12.0 and 0.13.0, with the former getting regular bugfix micro releases. But now that they're changing the release policy slightly, maybe we can do that. And there's not much difference in stability between an even and odd-numbered release, IMHO. Perhaps it is a good idea to discuss this on gnustep-dev. I agree with you that having the newest is the best for the majority of the users. > would it be possible to have them at least in experimental?

So I suggest that we upload gnustep-make and gnustep-base (1.19.1) in sid, gnustep-gui 0.17.1 in experimental, then ask debian-release for another transition, and upload it to sid once we have green light from them.
