In general, yes.  The etch-volatile and etch-security branches shouldn't
be updated too much, if we can help it (sometimes patches to the
packaging in unstable need to be cherry-picked into the etch-volatile
branch to deal with upstream changes, but I'm trying to minimize it a
bit - minimal changes to stable and all that).

I haven't set it up yet.  I'll create a clamav-commits list and get
commit mails working.  That way people don't have to see them if they
don't want to, but can easily if they do.
