Hi, After a week of hard work we have made a lot of progress, so I hope this time it'll be ok for release time :
* Architectures : We have full builds on these 10 architectures : - alpha - arm - hppa - i386 - ia64 - mips - mipsel - powerpc - sparc (on http://people.debian.org/~phython/) - amd64 The m68k build is in progress (gtk+2.0 and a part of gnome2.6 have been built). The only architecture missing is s390. I've mailed debian-s390@lists.debian.org to ask for help but no reply at all (nobody to make builds, no access offer to a s390 box). * Unstable package with gtk+2.4 We have rebuilt all the unstable packages with gtk+2.4. We have about 30 FTBFS due to gtk+2.4 (mainly minor apps). We have reported all the bugs and most of them are "+ patch". Not sure of the best option here. I think we should upload gtk+2.4, bump the severity of these bugs to serious and wait a week or so before NMUing them if necessary. * gnutls 7->10 transition The transition has been made in experimental for cups, gnome and related packages. Chris Cheney is ready to upload a kdelibs4/gnutls10 to unstable, samba maintainers to upload samba/gnutls10 and we handle all the gnome related packages. * tests Some upgrade tests from "gnome 2.4.1 sarge" to "gnome 2.6 experimental" have been successfully made. Upgrades from unstable to experimental have been tested too with success. Is there anything else expected from the release team for Gnome2.6 before the upload to unstable or are we ok now ?
