Anope 1.8.x is stable and we always recommend packaging it. We would like to see a 1.8.8 package in Debian.

(I filed a duplicate of this at #698807; sorry that I didn't see this one). My own interest in anope stems from being the maintainer for ircd-hybrid, whose authors recommend anope over any other services. ircd-hybrid 8 is in experimental and I'm hoping to upload it to unstable shortly after the wheezy release. ircd-hybrid 8 is not compatible with hybserv (which has in any case been removed from Debian) and so I am keen to seen anope enter Debian so that ircd-hybrid can continue be an option for a services-supported ircd in Debian. I noticed that anope 1.8.8 has now been released, with ircd-hybrid 8 support. Anope team, do you have any more thoughts on this - would you be happy to see Debian package of 1.8.8 appear? I wasn't party to the original discussion with Christoph.
