With Debian Testing frozen for the Squeeze release, it is very unlikely to
enter Unstable (Unstable is the normal entry point for Testing). Someone who
is familiar with the packages would need to evaluate their maturity for an
Ubuntu release and if they were ready, request the freeze exception so that
they could be sync'ed from Experimental. If that is done, then they could be
backported to 10.04. Backports process is deescribed in [2].
