One thought - it might be best in cases like that to file a separate bug for each CVE. I'd think it'll simplify verifying that all CVEs are covered later, and it also accomodates better for having to backport separate patches to fix each CVE if the decision is not to upgrade....
later, chris

0.88.1 was checked in and built yesterday (for devel, FC-5 and FC-4, at least).
Just for those three, which raises the issue of a handoff to Legacy for FC-3, etc

Legacy has stated that they will not support extras as they don't have the resources needed for the extra work load. extras needs to support extras until such time as legacy drops support.
when a core release goes into maintainence mode extras should also. which would mean major bugs and security fixes only.
the SIG is too small right now to look after all of extras so the maintainers should be strongly encouraged to do it. with support from the security SIG. I have requested that FC-3 also be built.

FYI, 88.1 from FC5 Extras builds fine on FC2, and I'll be updating my installation later today. I did find that Extras/Development still has the older 88 package, so apparently 88.1 didn't go through Development first. (I've got the SRPM directories for Core/Development and Extras/Development bookmarked and draw from there for my more important FC2 updates.)

It's in CVS; it seems Enrico didn't send a build request.

I find it easier to work from CVS; just checkout and type "make i386" to have packages dropped in the current directory.

Good to know. Might be a good thing to stuff in the wiki somewhere.

somehow i dont have the commits emails, its not released yet. This is a package that is widely used and could do with haveing an email sent to fedora-announce when its pushed

It's been built and awaiting signature for 23 hours now.
Every time something like this comes up a pile of issues reveal themselves: emergency sign&push, procedures for maintainers to drop old releases, where to send announcements. We made plenty of proposals but of course nothing happened.

FE commit mails were broken, but appear to work again now.
emergency sign&push
Mail to extras-signers at fedoraproject.org is delivered to folks who can do that for Extras. I'll take care of this push in a jiffy.
