+<PRE>'Twas brillig, and Anssi Hannula at 19/04/12 18:50 did gyre and gimble:
+&gt;<i> 19.04.2012 00:16, Colin Guthrie kirjoitti:
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Hi,
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> MythTV has (at last!) a new version out. I would like to include this in
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> mga2. I appreciate it's late but as a leaf package I think it'll be safe
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> enough. It'll be the version I'll likely be personally running here at
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> home (as a backport) so I'd prefer it if that was the same one I was
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> supporting generally.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> But it's not something I'm massively worried about generally, so if
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> people have strong feelings please do make them known.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> I've already ported the mythtv package and the LAME patches. Will do the
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> plugins one shortly (I'll need to do this anyway for my own needs so not
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> wasted effort).
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Anssi, what do you think about including this in mga2?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> It indeed would be very late for such a change.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> But I would still probably side on the allowing side, due to the sum of
+</I>&gt;<i> the following reasons (which are not reasons enough on their own):
+</I>&gt;<i> - maintainer wants to include it and is running it himself anyway, so it
+</I>&gt;<i> gets good testing and support
+</I>&gt;<i> - MythTV has major releases very rarely (at least so far), but the
+</I>&gt;<i> release branches seem to be supported for a long time (unless I
+</I>&gt;<i> misinterpret their version numbers)
+</I>&gt;<i> - bugs affecting the upgrade of the distribution are unlikely, since
+</I>&gt;<i> this is a leaf package
+</I>&gt;<i> - bugs affecting the installation of the distribution are unlikely,
+</I>&gt;<i> since mythtv is not part of any default installation
+</I>&gt;<i> - all bugs can still be fixed with /updates, and mythtv is not part
+</I>&gt;<i> of any release media AFAICS
+</I>&gt;<i> - we don't have /backports for providing this afterwards
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> However, if other people are against this, I guess it is better not to
+</I>&gt;<i> do it.
+</I>
+It seems that there has not been a chorus of disapproval, so I've
+committed and requested a push.
+
+Can still revert if someone steps in with a big objection.
+
+Right, I'm done with any freeze version exception requests. I'll be a
+good boy from now on :D (probably).
