NEW queue cleared, what next

[Luca Boccassi]

Hello,

All our uploads have cleared the NEW queue, so I was wondering what's
the plan now?

Given we have many new binary packages coming up, personally I would
vote for either uploading 358 to experimental as-is (without
libnvidia-cfg1 and libnvidia-glcore that were committed recently to
branches/355) or skipping it entirely (was a short lived and dead
release anyway).

And then have 361 with all the new packages in all at once queue up in
NEW, since that will take a while again, so that we can progress once we
are past that step.

The problem I'm afraid of is that many users will be unable to use
Debian at all without local builds or using the upstream installer, as
352 is dead and it will not receive updates to support new hardware like
the 1070 and 1080 cards.

Also Stretch is completely at the mercy of CVEs since again 352 is dead
and won't get any security fixes, which is also worrying.

Thoughts?

Kind regards,
Luca Boccassi
