Hi, Thanks for the interest in patching ca-certificates in the stable releases. Could I perhaps convince you to file this (kind of) request as a pu bug? They are much easier for us to track than mails to the mailing list. I appreciate that you might have been sending this mail to avoid the pu-bug. Unfortunately, we often end up forgetting the mail on our TODO list if it is not listed in the bug tracker. Thanks, ~Niels
