As Peter said; as for shotwell and xnoise, there are updates that
actually require a newer Vala that can be pushed to F-14 if Vala is
updated, and Renich asked because, likewise, a synapse update requires
the new Vala.

Most shotwell ABRT bugs seem to be not due to shotwell itself, but due
to a dependent library; and another of my package, gedit-vala, would
need to be updated to a snapshot to support Vala 0.12. So personally, I
can go either way on this, but would like to hear if other maintainers
prefer to go ahead or not.

Thanks,
