Is this policy? If so, it's not one I'm aware of - can you clarify
please?
My understanding of the position was that you have to make sure a proper
package upgrade path is maintained, basically that the versions go in
the right direction and that the package is upgradable. Apart from that
I thought it was at the discretion of the uploader exactly which
releases they wanted to fix. Is that wrong?
