I hope this change to policy will take place after the next release as
it means that all packages have to be recompiled and uploaded.
I think changes to policy that great should coincidence with the start
of a new development version.
Is there some information on when the change to the new policy will
take place?
(Note: I CC'ed -policy on this, but I am not subscribed to it. So
please keep -devel or CC me in person. Thanks.)
