Hi Markus, LTS, and Security team folks, I write this with my LTS FD hat on and with a reference of IRC text from #debian-lts earlier today, where it was decided to "disable uploads to jessie-security" (Emilio will send a separate mail for that!).
With regards to the current transition of Jessie from LTS to ELTS and Stretch from Security to LTS, I suspect there'll be two (or maybe more) possible clashes, which I'd really want to avoid. So I am writing here so that we avoid them both: 1. imagemagick/oldstable Right now, this package has been claimed in dla-needed.txt by Markus and in dsa-needed.txt by jmm. Although I think jmm is working on Stretch and Markus is working on Jessie. But to be very explicit (since explicit is better than implicit :)), I am going to move the package from dla-needed.txt to ela-needed.txt (since it's listed in packages-to-support and since Jessie is now ELTS!). This will indeed make sure that there is no clash of work. Please shout back if I should not. 2. squid3/oldstable Right now, this package has been claimed in dla-needed.txt by Markus and by no one in dsa-needed.txt. Now, this is an interesting part. squid3 is not supported in Jessie ELTS. So we just want to fix it for Stretch. This means that it'd be very nice if Markus can work on oldstable DSA instead. This also means that I am considering to drop it from dla-needed (because it doesn't make sense to have it there anymore!?). Please really should back if I should not. Best, Utkarsh
