I have just done a full cleanup and upload to experimental.

The things that are still missing for an upload to unstable IMHO are:

1. UCF support for conf.d/*

2. Move all but *really don't muck with this* debian defaults to /etc
   using UCF

3. Move all the AV definitions into their own file if in /etc, for
   easier user handling

4. Go over the BTS and Mark's notes, and populate the changelog with
   proper (closes: #) entries.  Instead of doing it all on the newest
   entry, do on the proper entires.

5. Think over some of the Debian defaults and config tweaks, a list
   of the stuff missing/needing some work that I found is in debian/TODO

Finally, when the above is done, upload a build that uses dpkg-buildpackage
-v20030616p10-5 to unstable.  Whatever we do, we must not forget that -v.

I am running amavisd-new 2.3.3-1 in production, now.  It is ready for an
unstable upload, as far as stability and the code are concerned.

The only lasting doubt is the perl utf8+taint crap. Anyone recalls the test
we had devised to cause amavisd-new to lockup if perl was still b0rked?  I
want to revisit safe_encode and safe_decode, and if at all possible revert
to what is upstream.
