Packages-arch-specific maintainance changes
The wanna-build admins, made the switch and put Packages-arch-specific, the file which states what packages are excluded from which architectures, into their hands. This means that the submission rules for changes to this precious file that controls our building infrastructure change a bit:

Githubredir available
Gunnar Wolf announce[0] ?GitHub-Redir[1],the main target for this site is uscan Given that ?GitHub allows for downloading as a .zip or as a .tar.gz any given commit, it suddenly becomes enough to git tag with a version number, and ?GitHub magically makes that version available for download. Which is sweet!
Sometimes it is a bit problematic, though, to follow their format. Github gives a listing of the tags for each particular project, and each of those tags has a download page, with both archiving formats.

Babelbox updated for Lenny
The "Babelbox" demo system has been updated for Lenny. It's been tested with D-I Lenny RC1, but should also work without further changes with RC2.
As a result of various changes in the installer, installation and use of Babelbox is somewhat simpler than it was for Etch.
Babelbox is a system designed to demonstrate the automation capabilities of the Debian Installer. It also shows the high number and the quality of translations available for the installer. It is well suited for a live demo on a booth in an expo or any other event.
