We've just uploaded mat2 to stretch-backports [1]. In case you've any
feedback, be it positive or negative, we would be very happy to hear it.

Also, due to recent works, mat2 now also finally ships the Nautilus
extension, in case that is important to you. mat2 currently ships no
dedicated GUI, in contrast to mat. Version 0.8.0-3 is the first version
to ship the extension, we will upgrade the version in stretch-backports
in ~ ten days, after the migration to testing.

@Team: Due to mat2 now shipping a binary package mat, all of the five
currently open bugs got reassigned. All of these deal exclusively with
the original mat, hence, I plan to close these, marking as done and
telling that mat2 is now available. Thoughts?

Cheers,
Georg
