Status of debian-amd64 after sarge release

[Jan Houstek <jan.houstek@mff.cuni.cz>]

Hi.

I'm a long-term Debian user/admin/advocate, I use the stable version of
Debian GNU/Linux on several tens of production servers. During next few
month I will be deploying several AMD64 machines (dual-Opteron) and I'd
love to use Debian as well.

If I understand it well, the current port is mostly based on Sarge which
is to be released before end of 2004 (knock, knock). So my questions are:

1) What will happen with debian-amd64 after Sarge is released? Will it be
freezed or will it continue to follow (new) testing? What about security
updates?

2) Is there any schedule for the official unstable/testing/stable Debian
versions about amd64 adpotion?
