You mean *NO* new bugs have been filed, right? Cause the package is clean 
for a month now :)

Well, it has been a month, and I'd not like to starting patching old 
releases of libxml before a release. As it has been in sid for a month now 
and there are no new bugs in it, maybe release team could allow this 
package to go to testing.

I was going to ask this next week together with other packages, but now 
that you raised the question...

***release team***, please unblock package libxml-ruby version 0.8.3-1 .

Please mates, don't make me start to have lots of diff in my package for 
the whole lenny cicle, ok? :)

Cheers,
