Surprise, Surprise, the maintainer answered in/around 30 minutes
although sadly I got to see his reply now. <br>
<br>
As shared by him, the kodi package (with the name change and some
changes) is already in the ftp-master 'NEW' queue. <br>
<br>
AFAIK all the repos. within Debian would be frozen till 25th
day/night till Jessie is not released. Also once the floodgates
open there would be lot of lot of stuff in NEW that the
ftp-masters would have to process so in that when kodi's number
will come is not known. <br>
<br>
What is good news for us is that the initial packaging is all done
and hence the source packages are available to us or nearly
available to us (shouldn't be much of a problem getting that
version). The real problem would be though if we want a newer
version than that as then we would have to patch it. <br>

OK - that solves the xbmc issue then - I think we would pull in
newer releases of well known / well used packages than are in debian
stable - do you agree?<br>
