Oh OK. So long as it's known and deliberate, I'm happy :) But I notice upstream-etch does not exist either. How will we be generating these branches, from upstream or from current debian-unstable deleting the debian directory? I'm assuming here we were planning to use upstream-etch branches. Just asking out of curiosity, my main interest is in the future, I'll start creating [upstream,debian]-experimental branches soon (unless etch gets released before I get the chance).
