You are welcome. :-) > Now that Debian has moved to MongoDB 2.6+, it would be great if we could > upload libmongoclient-dev to unstable What is blocking me from trying to move it to unstable is this discussion that I had with upstream: https://jira.mongodb.org/plugins/servlet/mobile#issue/CXX-923 They finally released mongocxx 3.0.x, that they currently recommend for new development. On the other hand, my use case for this package (Orion context broker, https://github.com/telefonicaid/fiware-orion), seems to still use the version I packaged, so I kept the package in experimental. > (and possibly have > mongo-cxx-driver-legacy provide mongodb-dev as a metapackage as well), What is the purpouse of this metapackage? > as at least one package (uwsgi) could make use of it.

Currently I have no time at all (and will likely not have time for the next few months). So feel free to work on this package as you want/need. I am open to co-maintainance or even to orphan this package, if you want to adopt it. Best, Giulio
