Since I've moved, I have no more DSL connection.
Thus I've not downloaded and tested latest GNUstep package.

Well, Adam has said that he have updated the sonames, it means you will 
have to rename the lib* packages, and then rebuild all gnustep packages 
in Debian against this new lib* packages. It's a a huge work and I don't 
think this can be done before the release.
And I don't talk about the changes in the printing system (with a new 
separate ppd source package).
But I think it could be interesting to have these package in experimental.
So if you want to prepare an NMU, do it... if Matthias is agree, of 
course and if you find someone to upload them.
