I'm in favor of something as Colin described with the caveat that 0.9.22~rc1 or some variant will work "better" due to many packaging tools' lexicographical sorting. I'll also note that Gentoo appears to have been doing something similar for a while with unofficial versioning: http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/media-sound/pulseaudio/ In terms of process, Ubuntu 10.10/Maverick still needs to merge a few outstanding patches from stable-queue, but I don't anticipate that being a blocker after the release of 10.10 Beta. -Dan _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-dev Post to : ubuntu-audio-dev@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
