Issue with Next/Stagning ppa

[Romuald TISSERAND]

Ok.

Regarding the ppas, your message is not in the same line as Tim previously
wrote. When the Next ppa was created, the message sent by Tim was:
- gnome3 for 3.8
- next for 3.10
- staging for unstable

And as Gnome 3.8 is the baseline of UG 13.10, I don't really understand why
we should add the Gnome3 ppa with 13.10. Could you please clarify?

Thanks.
