2008-07:

 * Solved a bad issue with GDAL, now all major packages are in shape for freezing.
 * Qgis is out of lenny :-(
 * Paraview has been packaged by Debian-Science team and will be part of lenny :-)
 * HDF4 is now in much better shape.
 * GMT is up-to-date.

2008-06:

 * Quite intensive activity to fix major issues with gdal, mapserver and postgis.
 * Qgis is out of main, probably not in Lenny. Helpers are (possibly) working on that.
 * Frozen major upgrades for HDF libraries. AFAIK recent major releases are still not sufficiently tested with the heavy weights packages.

2008-05:
 * Ossim stuff uploaded onto svn repo, still far from being releasable, but it appears having some shape.

2007-10-17:

 * New upstream versions of gmt and gpsdrive uploaded. Both them are in NEW queue.

2007-10-16:

 * Current grass and qgis still missing in lenny due to independent causes (sparc/arm buildd failures)

2007-10-11:

 * Issued first report

2007-10-10:

 * New packages entered main:
  * libgeotiff-dfsg
  * gosmore
  * viking
  * mapnik

 * New package entered non-free:
  * libgeotiff-epsg

 * Current packages on bpo:
  * gdal 1.4.2
  * grass 6.2.1
  * ogdi 3.2.0~beta1-3
  * proj 4.5.0-2

2007-09-26:

  * gdal 1.4.2
  * grass 6.2.2
  * mapserver 4.10.3 (5.0 on svn)
  * qgis 0.8.1

2007-09-22:
 * A new branch for grass 6.3 from CVS has been added to DebianGis svn repository. It will be updated from time to time using 6.3 snapshots.

2007-08-05:
 * [:DebianGis/LiveImages:Live CD image] with the GIS tools available in Debian is created based on the draft tasksel task.

2007-07-24:
 * ogdi-dfsg and gdal 1.4.1 accepted in [http://www.backports.org/ backports.org]. Main up-to-date DebianGis packages can now enter straight on the Etch backports archive. DebianGis thermometer script changed to include backports archive status from now on.

2007-07-18:
 * grass 6.2.2 in sid (upstream released on 16th)

2007-06-27:
 * DebianGis binary archive has been removed. Backports will be uploaded onto [http://www.backports.org/ backports.org] which offers an unofficial buildd network.

2007-06-23:

 * EDI Meeting at DebConf7 happened. Minutes available at ["DebianGis/EdiMeetingMinutes"]
 * An updated mainstream toolchain is available for both etch and lenny with all greatest hits:
  * gdal 1.4.1 (with KML and OGDI suppport!)
  * grass 6.2.1 (6.2.2rc1 available)
  * qgis 0.8.0 (0.8.1 in preparation)

 * New packages entered the archive:
  * OGDI
  * Geotiff
 
 * Packages now under the DebianGis maintainance umbrella:
  * HDF4/HDF5
  * GMT
  * proj

 * DebianGis wiki moved to the official Debian wiki.

 * ECW library has gone. Ermapper changed previous license in an EULA, so packaging is no more possible.
