Hi all,

I'm almost done with iceape 1.0.7-1. See the changes in svn to see how
far it has gone.

The remaining bugs to fix are #401431 and #403047, both being package
descriptions issues, and #401995 may need to be invastigated, but that
probably can wait for a new upload.

Now, for the package descriptions, I think it would just be better if we
just rewrote most of them from scratch (they are currently mostly the
result of s/mozilla/iceape/), as most are just outdated.

As for seamonkey reference, I'm not sure it would be wise to add
Seamonkey in the short description, as Alex suggested in #401431,
because it would not be easy to make it obvious that it is *not*
seamonkey in a very few words.

Adding a note to the long description should be enough for iceape to
come up when searching with apt-cache search seamonkey.

Anyways, I'm going to build what is currently in svn so that I can test
my latest changes, and will put the result in
http://people.debian.org/~glandium/iceape/.

I'll ping here when it's uploaded so that more people can test it. That
will also leave time to come up with better package descriptions (if you
have ideas, please send them to the list ;) )

I think we can then plan for an upload some time tomorrow evening
(GMT+1, so roughly in 24 hours).

Cheers,

Mike
