Experimental is for software that "might lose your data". If you think
it is a good idea, I can upload a beta to unstable where it will get
more testing (and I assume migrate to Ubuntu).
Just for your information:
- for Ubuntu Lucid (out in April), the date for the "Debian Import
Freeze", after which Debian packages are no more automatically imported
from Debian, is unfortunately tomorrow (feb. 11).
- there is another deadline, on the 18th, after which even the "import
on explicit request" mechanism generally stops. Even assuming that the
migration from Debian unstable to testing is as fast as possible (10
days), it's too late, but still, if the package happens to land in
unstable few days after the 18th, I think an exception could be
obtained.
That said, just as a user, I'm a bit confused about the difference
between packages named "syncevolution-evolution" and the ones just named
"syncevolution"... is there any (not considering versions)?
thanks for any clarification
