Sure, it lessens the load on maintainers right now (it makes sure that nobody will pull their package from the release because it hasn't migrated), but it's not quite fair to those of us who were forced (by a "must" rule) to migrate files in our packages. And especially if we did it already in packages using imake. <sigh> -- Digital Electronic Being Intended for Assassination and Nullification
