And as Debian Samba Maintainers, what is your opinion? :-)  Does it matter
from a package maintenance POV?  Does having a slightly longer (but still
short) period immediately after the release when Samba backports are not in
use make that much of a difference?

Anyway, I've presented the case for keeping 3.4 in the release.  If this was
not persuasive, we should go ahead with 3.5 in unstable.

Cheers,
