Hi release managers,

During (or close to?) last freeze, I requested that janus be kicked from testing, because upstream does not promise long-term stability of its releases.

you responded by not only kicking it but also blocking it from
re-entering. Thanks!

Now, I have changed my mind and decided that it makes sense for Debian
to include Janus in its stable releases despite upstream lack of
official support for that. I find the Janus codebase as stable if not
more than a lot of other code that we ship with Debian stable
uncoordinated from upstream maintenance promises.

Therefore, please lift the "ban" on Janus.

Kind regards,

- Jonas

Can you please also document this in your still open RC bug #946412
against janus for future reference?

Oh, certainly :-)
