You're welcome.

In the community meeting on Dec 1 (cf.
https://podman.io/community/meeting/notes/2020-12-01/#brent-baude)
Brent Baude (with some clarifications from Dan Walsh, IIRC) stated that
version 2.2
won't make it into any RHEL release. RHEL 8.3 will go with podman 2.1,
whereas RHEL 8.4
will go straight with podman 3.0. podman 2.2 will only be in Fedora, and
given the
development velocity and support burden for the podman team, I was
hesitating with
committing on podman 2.2 for bullseye. That's not a hard no from my side,
I'm happy
to hear other opinions.

One could be to let's go straight for podman 3.0. Since Debian is going to
have a
hard-freeze on 2021-03-12, that's kind of tight, but if doable if we
collaborate.
There are a couple of dependencies that we need to update in experimental
and I would
really appreciate help with it.

So folks, what do you think?
