</I>I can only chime in with Stormi, in last packager meeting ennael
said that new packages would be allowed during the freeze,
but we should focus on bug fixes, which is comprehensible.
Also misc didn't say anything that new packages are disallowed.
So when did this change and who changed it? Or is it just that the
reason given for xonotic was not enough?
I'm just asking in advance, because i've not gotten around to properly
testing qtsixa, which i wanted to add for Mageia 2 and to resolve
<A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3362">https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3362</A>
Because i didn't want to import it untested, and another problem
is that i can't spare a physical cauldron installation, which made
testing a lot more difficult, it's not in Mageia yet.
Also what about adding hardware support as e.g. needed for
<A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4249">https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4249</A> ?
Also disallowed?
