Please merge amsn 0.98.3-1 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

I could see the new debian amsn release, but I cannot see the new version in the official site anyway...
Could this be an svn update, like the 0.98.2 release?

That's not a new upstream release, that's a new version with a new debian revision.

(with new modifies and/or features)

I meant that's a version with now modify from debian, see the changelog:

amsn (0.98.3-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release.

Actually, I don't know which is the new release since they have just a number attached to them without a new version number.

Uploaded. Thanks for your work!

Description-it: messenger MSN scritto in Tcl
 Un'applicazione "messenger" molto carina compatibile con MSN. Funziona
 suppergiù come la sua controparte Windows. Perfetta per tenersi in
 contatto con quegli amici che non hanno ancora visto la luce.

Origin: Ubuntu

Because it has been uploaded in maverick. See https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/amsn/0.98.3-2ubuntu1 .

Without "edge", if you want. Sorry, my fault.

I'm going to test maverick in a virtualbox machine, could anybody publish it for lucid?

Generally at this point all work should go for maverick (merge, sync, bugfix ...). Also, why have you added the tags "update" and "upgrade" ?

But why there is no update for lucid?

As I said in my last comment: "Generally at this point all work should go for maverick (merge, sync, bugfix ...).", this means you can find the new version from maverick.

and from an upstream version standpoint, this is the same version as in lucid, with no additional patch, so no need to update the lucid version.
