Hi,

that's great news. The changes look OK to me. I made a few more, and
finally found some time to test the package. Quick tests seems to work
for me, including an upgrade from 3.4 to 3.6 with a test database.

I'll file an ITP straight away; can't see any reason why not.

I wonder if this should go into unstable or experimental first? There
have been a few interested users who could test it from experimental,
but I guess the audience is otherwise very limited... maybe straight
to unstable is the way to go.

I suppose we'll have both 3.4 and 3.6 in etch, as it seems too late
to drop 3.4. I think we should adopt 3.4 as well, it's still on the QA
group's hands.

Now we just have to find a DD to do the actual upload(s) :) I'm CCing
Tim Cutts, who expressed interest earlier, as I'm not sure if he's on
the pkg-request-tracker-maintainers list. Tim, would you have time to
look into this? The packages are in the svn.debian.org repository:

http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-request-tracker

Of course, the DDs on the list are also welcome to do this :)

Cheers,
