Ah. I wasa thinking that that branch would EOL if a 4.94.3 appeared.

As I understood it, taint-warn would be in 4.95 (and 4.94.3 if it
happens) so the would be no need to continue 4.94.2+taintwarn.

What happens after 4.99 - 4.100 or 5.00 (which IIRC is the way exim 2.0
happened) ?

A major release is going to be a major headache for Debian/Ubuntu users.
Changing program name and config/spool/run/log dirs to exim5 :-(

How long will Exim and Debian want to support exim4 *and* exim5 ?
