Why not having gnome2 and gnom1.4 all together in unstable ? More and more people would be able to look at debian problems. I really do not understand why i have to get packages fom experimental while those packages are not unusable, or not uninstallable. They are working quite good (at least for me). Well, having gnome2 alongside gnome1.4 would NOT break anything in unstable ! Am i wrong ? The only missing features is transition packages from gnome1.4 to gnome2, gnome2 just doesn't care about gnome1.4 configs file. So, it will not break anything in user's platform, people installing gnome2 will know what they do ! If they don't want to get gnome2, they won't get gnome2. Next, the choice will be for maintainers to prefer continue to maintain gnome1.4 packages, or switching to gnome2, or maintain boths packages. I do not see any real problem that would need to continue leaving gnome2 lost in experimental. Why not having both versions in unstable ?
