Hello all,

So, pardon my ignorance, but is Denemo 2.5.0 actually released yet?
Or is it pending more testing or more translations?

We at Debian are currently tracking https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/denemo/
for officially Denemo releases.  Is that still the canonical URL to track?

Furthermore, there seems to be no Denemo 2.5.0 announcement yet,
and http://denemo.org/downloads-page/ still refers to both 2.2 and 2.4.
To someone like me who haven't been following Denemo's development
closely, it is all very confusing.

Sorry for the rush, but Debian 11's Hard Freeze is imminent[1],
and while I packaged 2.5~rc1 "to get the foot in while I still could",
it would be great if we could have the official Denemo 2.5.0 release
in Debian 11.

Many thanks!

Cheers,
Anthony
