As this is a new upstream version, it needs now a FeatureFreeze exception.
See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess for the process.

Please resubscribe ubuntu-universe-sponsors if you got an exception.

I'm unsubscribing motu-release and ubuntu-universe-sponsors for now.

After you've completed the FFe information, you may resubscribe motu-release.
There's no point in subscribing ubuntu-universe-sponsors until after an FFe
is approved.

My main concern was this Debian bug:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=494221

But I see that its building fine on i386 (and consistently with old build logs).
Could I just ask that you check what you upload before you do it (I'm referring to the above changelog diff)?
I'm attaching the release notes for 0.20 to this for the benefit of other members of motu-release.

motu-release ack from me (but please note that you need another before this is confirmed and you can proceed with sponsoring).

Improved compatibility with MySQL 5 sounds pretty important, so I'm confirming this FFe.
Sponsors, please check carefully if this package builds correctly, though.

Hi,

Debian has a patch for the problem now. I hope they will
upload a fixed -3 soon, so we should hang on a few days and
grab that if we can.

Even if the package builds ok here there would still be some
risk with that bug, which is why I suggest waiting.

Thanks,

James

Hi,

The Debian bug was never a problem for Ubuntu as we still have
rrdtool 1.2.

There has been an upload of netmrg in the meantime, so this is
now a merge, sorry about that. I'll work on the merge if no-one beats
me to it.

Thanks,

James

Hi,

I missed that Debian also fixed the bug that the upload in Ubuntu
fixed, so the sync is fine.

Thanks,

James
