About La Salle Debain

This is a weblog I'm keeping about my work on Debian and any other useful Debian related info I come across. It is not meant to compete with other news sources like Debian Weekly News or Debian Planet. Mostly it is just a way for me to classify and remember all the random bits of information that I have floating around me. I thought maybe by using a blog it could be of some use to others too. Btw. "I" refers to Jaldhar H. Vyas, Debian developer for over 8 years. If you want to know more about me, my home page is here.

The name? Debain is a very common misspelling of Debian and la salle de bains means bathroom in French.

If you have a comment to make on something you read here, feel free to write to me at jaldhar@debian.org.

You can get an rss 0.91 feed of the blog here.

Status of sarge release.

[Posted to debian-devel by Drew Scott Daniels.]

debian-release@lists.debian.org is the best place to discuss this. I'm going to start posting this unofficial status report there like I did for my freeze date estimate last month in http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2003/debian-release-200306/msg00004.html
Again, I'm having trouble keeping this up to date and accurate, but here it is as I'll likely be busy for the next few weeks. I'll try to post another message updating this stuff again next month, but next time it'll be to debian-release.

Note I don't think I've updated the menu and translation items yet.

I may not be pointing to the canonical locations. My guesses about priorities (1-3) of things to be done before Sarge is released is below with status information. I'm unsure as to where to get status information about some things in the second paragraph below (which is mainly about packages).

Some other notes:

Old items that I haven't updated because I consider them to be resolved for now:
