I voted for that one.

I did not vote for individual one.

Hope they get GNOME 3.32 in Buster.

Already on Buster, and frankly this release is ways more stable than Stretch at least on KDE.

Hope they get GNOME 3.32 in Buster.

by reading the article and the dates in it, it seems obvious that's impossible

Let's hope Mesa 18.3.1 will make it in. So far though kernels are lagging behind. I'm compiling 5.0-rc2 manually, while 4.20.x didn't make it even in unstable yet.

Read again...

Once that full freeze is in place, changes need to be manually reviewed and approved by the release team.

Forget about that 4.19 was choosen as Buster's kernel, so there won't be any new kernel in unstable for quite a long time

If i have to guess, maybe in june and even end of it, so maybe even early july Only updates for 4.19.xy will be in unstable.

Yeah, good thing I figured out how to build the kernel using older config as a starting point. It's relatively easy in Debian. 4.19 is very buggy for amdgpu users, so it's not even an option.
