** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: emesene
  
  Hi,
  
- I'd like to get a more current Emesene in Hardy. We have a quite old svn
- snapshot right now. This snapshot was uploaded 3 days ago to Debian and
- hasn't had any bugs yet, and it only had two (not counting the python-
- xml dependency, which is packaging-related) since the initial release
- (which happened almost one month ago), and they were already fixed
- upstream. Upstream is also very active and responsive.
+ We have a quite old svn snapshot. emesene 1.0 was released last week. It
+ has many bug fixes compared to our snapshot, and is stable. It's also
+ maintained upstream (they have branched it and are committing bug fixes,
+ although so far they have been mostly bad translations) and there will
+ be 1.0.x bug-fix and translation-updates only releases.
  
- Since Emesene is a new package in Hardy and doesn't have any rdepends,
- it won't have any regressions (plus I've tested this snapshot and it's
- being tested in Debian too).
+ It builds, installs and works fine. Attached is a build, install and
+ diffstat log.
  
- If 1.0 is released before the final release (and it should be, although
- there's no fixed schedule) I'll request an exception for that one too,
- providing it works fine.
+ Since emesene is a new package in Hardy and doesn't have any rdepends,
+ it won't have any regressions.
  
  Thanks,
  Emilio
