[RFC] Cyrus SASL 2.1.26 experimental->unstable

[Roberto C. Sánchez]

[Note: I am sending this email to both debian-devel and pkg-cyrus-sasl2,
as the pkg-cyrus-sasl2 list has low a population of subscribers, and
changes to cyrus-sasl2 have the potential impact many other packages.]

The cyrus-sasl2 package has seen better days, and I am trying to clean
it up and get it into better shape.  Thanks to the efforts of Ondřej
Surý and Adam Conrad, the package has not been stagnant, but the bugs
have still been accumulating.

In June of 2013, version 2.1.26 was uploaded into experimental.  It has
now been there for 7 months, and in that time there have not been any
bug reports filed that apply to only the package in experimental.  I
imagine that this more a result of lack of use, as opposed to absence of
bugs.

That said, I am curious if there would be any opposition to an upload of
cyrus-sasl2 2.1.26 into unstable.  Aside from opposition, are there any
other comments that anyone would like to offer in regard to this?

For the time being, I plan to continue my work on the 2.1.25 version
that is currently in unstable (merging into the experimental version as
appropriate).

Regards,

-Roberto
