For the record, I'm not quite sure if dropping large sets of packages to ~arch is actually a good idea. While it's fine for some leaf packages, the Python packages have proven to grow new dependencies quite fast. In the end, dropping stable keywords may result in only having to reintroduce them soon afterwards, with lots of extra work. -- Best regards, Michał Górny
