I don’t think we’ve backported this change to 3.0 branch yet, or maybe we have and I missed it.  But if packagers have no issue with the change (Raul did some work in this area which should hopefully make packagers happy), then we can make it in 3.0.1.

Chris Berg said debian absolutely needs a release tag before they will provide a package, but he things Bas would be willing to for an alpha.  I haven’t asked Devrim, but I think he follows the same rule -  NO TAG NO PACKAGING
