It is far too late now to revert to version 3.1 in Debian Stretch and we will release with 3.2.1. Apparently those bugs were reported against 3.2.2, so perhaps Debian's version is not affected but I haven't tested it yet. Normally we would have received a concrete bug report by now though. We could also do a point release to fix specific bugs in Stretch if the patches are not too intrusive. At the moment I am not aware of any severe campaign bugs. As for packaging new upstream releases: We could use a helping hand with warzone2100, someone who is interested in properly maintaining the package. As it stands for now, only severe bugs will be addressed in the future and hopefully we get a new version into Buster but that's not for certain. Regards, Markus
