Considering the circumstances that: - mc is now really quite out of date; - going to hamm is quite a big leap (libc6), I do certainly look forward to having mc-4.0 in Debian-1.3.x. Until I am very sure that the transition to hamm and libc6 is a smooth one, I will cherish Debian-1.3.x as very stable. I will gladly test an mc_4.0.deb.
