[Pkg-exim4-users] Debian Exim 4 status

[Marc Haber]

Hi,

I would like to give the Exim community a short summary of Exim's
status in Debian.

With the archive update run on friday night, exim4 4.44-2 moved to
Debian sarge after approval by the release team on Thursday.

On saturday, I uploaded exim4 4.50-2 to Debian unstable, and it went
in during the archive update run on saturday night. This is the first
Debian version mentioning the pkg-exim4-users list, so I expect a
surge in subscriptions and probably even some traffic. As soon as
4.50-2 has become a valid candidate for sarge (which will be in ten
days), I'll ask the release team to approve 4.50-2 for sarge, which I
hope they will actually do.

eximdoc4 4.50-1 was uploaded to unstable late last night, so it missed
the archive update run and will only go in tonight. It will have a
"dummy release critical bug" filed on Wednesday to keep it from
migrating into testing while the "real" exim 4 packages are still on
4.44.

If you have any questions regarding the process, please do not
hesitate to ask.

Greetings
Marc
