At least I'm not keen on it. I'm rather working on getting rid of all my remaining Wheezy installations (at least 5 or so) and upgrade them, preferably twice in a row. ;-) Anyways: Wheezy was the first Debian release where Zsh was team-maintained and hence it should be not a too ugly package to update. If you have questions on the background of some aspects, feel free to ask. I can't really talk for all team members, but I don't expect much of a different response from most of them given their current busyness on other topics. So feel free to go ahead. > If you don't want to take care of this update, it's not a problem, we > will do our best with your package.

I actually feel a little bit obliged towards the LTS team to do at least that. :-) So feel free to contact me (or the pkg-zsh-devel list) once a package is available for testing. > You can also opt-out from receiving future similar emails in your > answer and then the LTS Team will take care of zsh updates > for the LTS releases. Should be generally fine. But if possible use only the mailing list for that: All Uploaders are subscribed AFAIK and some more people who might be able to help (Daniel Shahaf comes to my mind :-) are subscribed, too.
