Hi guys,
sorry to have spotted it out late (the thread subject don't help :)
and thanks to Manuel to have notified me about this thread.

My plan (as one of maintainers of matplotlib in Debian) is to keep
uploading 0.91.x in unstable, so it can migrate to testing (the
staging area to prepare the next stable release) when needed, and
prepare the 0.98.x package into experimental. I need this since 0.98
introduced API changes, and I need to let depending packages check if
they are compatible with this new version (if not, adapting them)
before uploading to unstable and break things.

Since numpy in unstable is already at 1.1.0 (scheduled to be migrated
in testing in few days), I try my best to have 0.98.x in unstable
asap, so to let lenny (the upcoming stable release) ship 0.98.x!

Cheers,
Sandro
