Will Redhat and Debian packages be kept up-to-date?

I have the greatest assurances from both Tynian (the Debian uber-E maintainer) and Raster (head honcho of the Redhat hordes) that the Redhat and Debian distribution packages will be kept up to date with each official release. This still means that if you wade into the CVS tree that you will probably have to clean up any messes you make manually. Additionally, Debian packages are made for Esound (ESD) and Emusic regularly by their authors. Additionally, Debianized CVS snapshots are now available, and a similar service will hopefully be provided for RPMsed snapshots for those who don’t want to wait or get their hands dirty.
