Hi Harald!

Given the spectrum of hardware support the project involved, the 
relation between ppl who had troubles with it and the ones who had not 
were really really just a few.  Fprint works for, virtually, everyone.

What Daniel (who, btw, is the Fprint developer :-)) is that the software 
is still in hard alpha develop and the current model is going to change 
(soon?).
Anyway, putting it into experimental doesn't mean to hide it, it's a 
""secure"" measure announcing that it kinda works but needs testing and 
time to get going on.

Daniel, I think it's no plan of the team to include Fprint+Pam-fprint on 
massive mayor branches as Testing nor Stable, of course.

    Another plan could be to upload to experimental, wait a while (e.g. 1
    month) and if no important bug is reported, upload to unstable, but
    *only* with an RC bug to keep it outside testing until upstream author
    agrees.

I agree that's what we should do, if we do so asap.



Greetings,

Dererk
