Feature freeze exception request for new minor release

Hi,

First of all, sorry for missing the feature freeze because of an error in my calendar.

Python-virtkey is a library used by the onboard, the default onscreen keyboard shipping with Ubuntu. Version 0.60.0 of python-virtkey has just been released and it will be necessary for onboard 0.94.0 (current version of onboard is 0.93.2) to listen for changes to the keyboard layout; onboard 0.94.0 is going to be released in the next days. (I will wait for onboard 0.94.0 to be released before subscribing the release team to this bug, so that both feature freeze exceptions can be handled simultaneously.)

Here are the changes that went into python-virtkey 0.60.0:

    * Add methods to get the active layout symbols and group (LP: #65626)
    * Add python error exit in getKbd (LP: 526791)
    * Fix potential X resource leaks
    * Add test code to simulate missing X keyboard
    * Some code cleanup
    * Reorganize source directory and add AUTHORS, NEWS and README files
    * Add MANIFEST.in file
    * Use patch by Vincent Untz to use pkg-config instead of hardcoded paths
    * Update license to LGPL 3
    * Use 'python-virtkey' name also for source package
    * Change source version format to major.minor.micro
    * Add some API documentation
    * debian/source/format:
        - Add debian format file and use 3.0 (quilt)
    * debian/compat:
        - Raise it to 7
    * debian/control:
        - Update Standards-Version to 3.9.1
        - Set minimal required version for debhelper to 7.0.8
        - Add quilt to Build-Depends
        - Add homepage
        - Improve long description
    * debian/copyright:
        - Add hosting site
        - Add marmuta and myself
        - Update license information
    * debian/pycompat:
        - Remove pycompat file
    * debian/rules:
        - Include patchsys-quilt.mk
    * debian/watch:
        - Add watch file

The package builds, install and seems to run correctly; I am currently using it on the development version of Ubuntu maverick. As far as I know, onboard is the only package depending on it.

If you need additional informations, please, don't hesitate to ask.

Best regards.
