In two days, dmidecode will have passed its 10 day waiting period, and
should be ready to go into testing. As it is frozen (creating an
udeb), I need help from someone to get it into testing. I start this
discussion a bit early, as I expect it to take at least two days to
make a decision. :)
The package currently in testing, version 2.6-1, was uploaded
2005-03-03. I believe it is time to get the new and improved version
into testing. This is the changelog since version 2.6-1:
dmidecode (2.7-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Change priority for dmidecode from optional to important to
match override file.

dmidecode (2.7-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
- Include new command line interface making it easier for scripts
to extract the values they want.
- Default output format is slightly changed. This might break existing
scripts, which should use the new command line options instead.
- Added supprt for more products in vpddecode.
* Remove David Z. Maze as uploader on request from Jeroen van
Wolffelaar. David is giving up package maintainence.
* Removing 30_upstream_20050605 now included in release 2.7.
* Updated Standards-Version to 3.6.2. No changes.

dmidecode (2.6-2) unstable; urgency=low

And wearing my non-di-developer hat, I must say that having my package
frozen just because I was friendly and made an udeb available, is most
inconvinient, and I wish such hospitality would not be punished with
an unwelcome package freeze. :)
Cc to debian-boot, as the key to release an udeb probably is rooted
there. :)
Friendly,
