Looking at the patch, which is based on top of 2:3.6.9-1, this shouldn't be
that difficult. I will look at it in more detail once Andrew's repo is online.
I also looked at the old repo (based on the samba4 packages) briefly, but
having a patch history starting from the samba 3.6 branch makes it much easier
to compare both versions, so this work certainly wasn't waisted!

It should be possible to merge this work by next weekend, and hopefully get a
first combined samba package into experimental (well, into the new queue
anyway).

Yes, as Luk pointed out already.

BTW anybody else coming to SambaXP? Andrew? Jelmer?

Cheers,
