[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#709741: Bug#709741: samba: separate name functionaliy from auth & share functionality

[Christian PERRIER]

Quoting Scott MacKenzie (larrikin at inbox.lv):
> Package: samba
> Version: 2:3.6.6-6
> Severity: wishlist
> Tags: upstream

> I believe it would be beneficial to many users to be able to install a

> 
> An example usecase might be the sharing of Xsession information

Hello,

Franckly speaking, such suggestions, just like most enhancements and
improvements, would better be made to upstream. The likelihood that it
gets lost in Debian BTS is really high.

The value added by one of the maitnainers of Samba in Debian to report
your suggestion to upstream's BTS seems really low to me.

So, well, may I redirect you to upstream Bugzilla : http://bugzilla.samba.org?
