I expect that we can start the spatialite transition soon after its
release, but this mostly depends on the Release Team which manages the
transitions.

The scope of the spatialite transition is quite limited, it mostly
collides with the packages in the gdal transition that's currently blocked
from starting by the uncoordinated mapnik 3 transition.

There is also the uncoordinated libdap transition which prevents testing
migration of the gdal package, that needs to be resolved before the
spatialite transition can start.

I expect the spatialite to happen during the 4 month life of the 2.10
release, but with vacations and DebConf starting in the next 2 months we
may not make it if the Release Team doesn't give the go-ahead for the
spatialite transition soon after its final release.

Kind Regards,
