Sounds good to me. To complement what Mart (leio) said earlier, a good |
| 11 |
timing for Gnome is either 2.16.3 or 2.18.0/1, the latter not being due |
| 12 |
for stable in for another few weeks. |

My opinion: the sooner the better. But having new stages for new |
| 15 |
installs so that users don't have to find out about revdep-rebuild the |
| 16 |
minute they finish their install is probably the best way to go. |
