Hi,

I think the "confusion/expectation" is about the concept that -devel 
needs to be bleeding edge. That isn't necessarily always the case 
especially when upstream have multiple active branches. Adding to that 
bofh@ has already mentioned that he hasn't been able to test bleeding 
edge yet which is why it still tracks the 8.0-branch. We already have 
quite a few "drive-by" commits and if we want to maintain some kind of 
quality committing untested version bumps/patches isn't the way to go. 
Best regards, Daniel
