Since Woody is coming out really soon now, and it is to become the new
Debian stable, I think option 1 is the certain best choice.  Option 2
would take a good deal of work and time, and would involve adding
immature code.  PyXML 0.6.8/4Suite 0.11.1 may be old, but they're
stable.

As long as Sid tracks PyXML 0.7 and 4Suite 0.12.0, people who want the
latest and greatest always have an option, and I, as a new Debian
convert (for which I can thank/blame Edd Dumbill :-) ), will try to help
this process where I can.
