I spoke to Tim about this:
I think we could reasonably do a 1.3.2 with those changes backported
and ask for that to go as an SRU into hardy, and indeed into other
still-supported distroreleases.
For people to be happily using stacking with launchpad we need them to
install 1.6. This will be a larger change than would normally fit the
SRU guidelines. So we need some way for people to install it other
than through hardy-updates; that could be
* hardy-backports -- I'm not sure how many people have this installed
* pointing people to the Bazaar PPA
* possibly having a recommended PPA for all Launchpad clients
It would be really nice for Launchpad to look at the user-agent header
or ssh request headers and give a message to the user like "you should
upgrade" but that doesn't particularly help with the bugs mentioned
above.
