[Pkg-pascal-devel] new version of view3dscene

[Abou Al Montacir]

Hi All,
I don't think it is still time to have it in Stretch. Repository is already
frozen and only bug fixes are allowed.Same for sid, due to code freeze, we can
not package this. But Paul said he is going to package this for experimental.You
will then need to get it either from there or wait for it to hit backports.
Of course if you manage to convince the release team of a derogation, we may try
to help, but I doubt this is possible.
