-Small intro to the system for numbering the patches here...
-
--The 00xx-... patches are forwarded to upstream's git repository
-
--The 0xx_... series of patches are patches isolated from the latest
- version of the shadow Debian package not using quilt in order to
- separate upstream from Debian-specific stuff.
-
- NO MORE PATCHES SHOULD BE ADDED IN THESE SERIES
-
--The 4xx series are patches which have been applied to Debian's shadow
- and have NOT been accepted and/or applied upstream. These patches MUST be kept
- even after resynced with upstream
-
--The 5xx series are patches which are applied to Debian's shadow
- and will never be proposed upstream because they're too specific
- This list SHOULD BE AS SHORT AS POSSIBLE
-
-In short, while we are working towards synchronisation with upstream,
-our goal is to make 0xx patches disappear by moving them either to 3xx
-series (things already implemented upstream) or to 4xx series
-(Debian-specific patches).
