Hi,

I've just uploaded 2.8.9dev4-2 to experimental.

Done herewith. And the ITA bug will be closed as mentioned earlier.

*nod* I still hope for a release in April. But
https://bugs.debian.org/release-critical/ partially looks like a
roller coaster... :-/

Yes, the PTS (https://packages.qa.debian.org/lynx-cur) will not
recognize the new maintainers until we upload to Sid. That was btw. my
main reason to wonder if we should do an upload to Sid before the
Jessie release.

Not sure about https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/lynx-cur -- it seems to
be quicker in updating the maintainer box, but it still lists Atsuhito
KOHDA as maintainer despite Andreas' QA uploads. So it seems to take
Sid as base for that, too.

		Regards, Axel
