<p>Sorry I missed the meeting. I understand why distro maintainers
wouldn't want pre-1.0 code. I thought that you would release 1.0
both as the usual source repo _and_ with "example" packages. I
would expect that the maintainers might well repackage to suit
their tastes.<br>

I thought that one necessity before 1.0 were at least preliminary
"packaged" version for the major distros - i.e., .deb and .rpm
files, conformant to the conventions (file locations, etc.) of the
systems that used them.
Am I wrong? If not, do you know what the status of these are?

This came up at the staff meeting; unexpectedly, Mark was there. The
only packaging he seems to consider must-have is Debian.

And we have a chicken and egg thing with the distro maintainers, they do
not want to work with a pre-1.0 version.
