I think I already said it public more than one time, lets repeat it: I am sure that sections *will* go away. Yet, right after Lenny we will gain half a dozen new ones, as getting rid of them is no short term task. I think the very first release without sections *COULD* be lenny+2, but only if people start working on that goal *soon* after lenny got out. There are many major changes that need to be done before we finally can bury them. - All the usual tools need to fully support them. - Sane inclusion into the archive (that alone, with all the implications it has for the maintenance of tags, will be a huge step already) - One release where we support both, but favor the new system. -- bye, Joerg Siliziumdioxid wird auf offenen LKWs durch Deutschland gefahren!
