Well, I think it'll be possible to make a "woody" version available on
the freenetproject.org site, but if we could get something 0.4-aware
into the release, that'd be way more bitchen.

One other thing: pretty much the only reason to do post-release
patches in Debian is if there are security breaches in the
software. So if we wanted to do something 0.4 right now, we could add
lots of FCP commands like RunArbitraryCommandAsRoot and HaX0rB()X and
stuff like that, and then we could "patch" Debian later with releases
that fix those security holes.
