Hi

I would like to upload next version of the 6.12.y stable series to
unstable, which is 6.12.33-1.

This was a very small release itself consisting of only of 25 commits,
the main reason for this upload is bringing in the packaging changes
mentioned last time about moving the package revision and ABI name
rules to configuration.

Concretely the packagaging changes are:

* d/rules: Include target suite as an input to gencontrol.py
* Move package revision and ABI name rules to configuration
* Include target Debian release number in ABI name
* Add suffix to ABI name to distinguish Debian versions with same upstream

and additionally some HW support in arm64/armhf land:

* [arm64] Enable Marvell OcteonTX2 NIC driver (Closes: #1098437)
* [armhf] Enable M_CAN support, used e.g. on stm32mp153 and stm32mp157
* [arm64] usb/typec: Enable TYPEC_RT1711H as module

This is all for 6.12.33. Now to a more complex aspect:

Along with this mail I would like to discuss one aspect for the next
uploads. If we are not yet just around the corner for 1. another d-i
release or for the next steps into even more harder freezing trixie, I
strongly would prefer if we could keep up still with some stable
series as upstream publishes them (and minimize the deltas beween the
updates). The reason is, that if we would stop after 6.12.33 we will
get a huge pileup for until the first DSA or first trixie point
release. Put honestly though, the 6.12.34 at least will be quite
substantial, beeing one including batch of fixes from the 6.16-rc1
release. After each merge window closing and the first -rc1 release
upstream the amount of changes flowing in stable series releases is
huge.

I'm glad to take any advice from both you as release team and
specifically as well d-i folks on where we should start to draw the
line.

We had a brief discussion on when to stop doing further 6.12.y uploads
and we agreed that if we are not yet right there as mentioned above we
would prefer if we could still to the uploads (as we expect them to
land in trixie anyway), with the above reasonings. Ben, Uwe and
Bastian correct me here publicly if I put the assessment wrongly.

Regards,
Salvatore
