Hello,

You know, some maintainers of the package are also Samba Team members,
so I suspect they're perectly aware of release dates and important
bugs.

I have no idea whether the bugs you mention are important or
not....but I suspect that an upload of Samba 4.3.5 will happen soon
and 4.4.0 will eventually be uploaded once released.

Still, Jelmer Vernooij, who mostly maintains samba packages alone,
recently called for help in maintaining the packages. Samba package
maintenance is a big work to do (I've done that for years and, at that
time I wasn't alone to do so) so I suggest not pressuring up the samba
package maintainers too much. TIA.
