ibid (0+bzr881+dfsg-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * Initial release (Closes: #565885)

Rationale for new package request in feature freeze:

The majority of Ibid users use Ubuntu and getting a release into an LTS will make them very happy. It's unlikely to negatively impact anyone else, as an IRC bot is a pretty niche package, not installed on many machines. Nothing currently depends on ibid.

Ibid has been in development for over a year, and has had Debian packages in private repos [0] and PPAs [1] for around 6 months, thus they are relatively stable and unlikely to contain nasty bugs.

This merge request was originally for 0+bzr881+dfsg-1, hoping to get the pre-release merged so 0.1.0 would make lucid. 0.1.0 was released before this request was ACKed.

hm... would a backport from lucid+1 to lucid work as well?

I'm a little bit inclined to accept the FFe, but I'd like to hear another opinion from a member of the release team.

Sure it would, and I'll probably be providing Ibid backports for Jaunty+
anyway, as long as we have users using those releases.
But I'm the upstream, and thus a little biased. If we can make it easier
for lucid users to run Ibid, I'm happy.

ok, since it has made it through debian/NEW already, I'm ok with getting it in. If it really makes it will depend on archive admins time to shove it through ubuntu's new queue though.
