Dear release team,
I seek your advise regarding the possibility for unblocking package 'zabbix'.
This is a major upgrade, not compliant with freeze policy and there were great
many changes [1] (and bugfixes) yet I believe we might have a strategic
benefits from allowing new version to Wheezy mostly from security prospective.
Security team expressed their concerns in #679801
http://bugs.debian.org/679801
At the moment current version in "testing" (zabbix/1:1.8.11-1+b1) is affected
by #683273 (security) and possibly some other security issues not to mention
number of bugs fixed in "unstable".
Also unblocking will be a relief for future maintenance.
Please note that "zabbix/1:2.0.2+dfsg-4" was in unstable for 33 days with no
new bugs reported.
Generally user's feedback for version 2 was quite positive and we already have
few backporting requests.
Please advise.
Best regards,
Dmitry.

Considering the statements from the security team in that bug I've opted
for removal of zabbix from wheezy. I guess we can see how the security
situation goes with 2.0.x in wheezy-backports and reconsider for jessie?
Sorry for the time it took to make a decision, and thanks for your work.
Cheers,
Julien
