Yes, I have stated that I can live with that, but...

... there's no need to have ion3 in "static" (the proper name for the
"stable" distribution). There's backports. You might be able to even
add a dummy package that tells the user to install from backports,
where it is updated whenever there's a new release.

And as is known, a "stable" Ion3 should be released in some months
time, and after that there shouldn't be much updates, and maybe
in the next update to "static", it could be included there...
(although the megafreeze model is still seriously broken).
