This patch is being pushed upstream to sugar labs parallel with its request for inclusion in Debian. That is part of the learning process. At this stage in the develop process, patches submitted to Sugar Labs will be probably applied to .90 or .92 due to the upstream timing. While both Debian and Ubuntu are in Feature Freezes. Ubuntu 10.10 will probably ship with Sugar 0.88 and the next version of Debian will ship either .88 or .90 depending on how Jonas feels about it's stability for a rather late inclusion into the Debian release cycle. Sorry for being unclear. For a little bit of back story -- for the last several years Sugar on .deb has been weaker than it could be. I attribute this to differences in culture, emphasis, and personalities between the projects. I fully admit that I have been and continue to be one of the 'problem' personalities. So, for this release we are learning and implementing both the the letter and the spirit of the laws for each Sugar Labs, Debian, and Ubuntu. Next release, after we have proven the we can work within the various systems, we will start optimizing workflows. For Further Clarity, By we, I am only referring to developers sponsored by Activity Central and SEETA. It is our job to figure out how to work effectively with the existing communities not the community job to figure out how to work with us. david -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
