I don't said that I'll never upload in experimental but for now I don't intent to upload to experimental. Wait and see the glibc/gcc bugs in 2 weeks. >> None get autobuilt > > Agreed, this is the biggest similarity, but as I said in my previous > post, if we collaborate we can gain some ground here.

I can't close bug fixed in 2.4 because I upload in experimenatl and 2.4 will surely introduce new bugs, and thus the bug number will increase and I'll spend more time to tag these bugs for nothing.
