I really think 2.4.x development is becoming almost non-existent
lately.

It's 5 or 6 days of silence, nothing happening at all, then a flurry
of 10 or 20 checkins and a -rc or -pre release.

If Conectiva needs to task Marcelo to so much work that he can only
really put 1 or 2 days a week into 2.4.x, this needs be rethought at
either one end (Conectiva finding a way to give him more 2.4.x time) or
another (Marcelo splits up the work with someone else or we simply find
another 2.4.x maintainer).

I really want something more -ac paced although that may be too extreme
for some people. :-)
