[maemo-developers] where might this old version be coming from

[From: Frank Banul]

Hi,

I'm sorry. I thought extras-devel was a testing area of sorts. Upload
something try it out, see how it goes. Then tweak and go through the
process again. Then when I'm finally satisfied, promote to extras. But
it seems that extras-devel has many of the same rules as extras. Oh
well, I appreciate the information.

thanks,
Frank
