This is the first official release of Debian Live CDs. The main features are, that these Live images are build 100% with packages in Debians main section and different flavours (GNOME, KDE and Xfce as well as a small image without graphical environment.</p> <p>Future releases should also contain an installation system, which is not part of this beta1 version, since it still contains some minor bugs. The images are created using <a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/live-helper";>live-helper</a>, a collection of scripts helping to create these CD images. There is also a <a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/live-magic";>graphical front end for these script</a>.</p> <p><strong>Debian Translations for French and German Reach 100%</strong></p> <p><a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2008/08/msg00014.html";>Christian Perrier announced</a> <q>On August 22nd, both German and French languages reached 100% completeness for po-debconf translations in unstable. For German, this is the very first time this has happened and the German l10n (localization) team deserves congratulations for that achievement.</q> Po-debconf translations enables native speakers use Debian in their own language and is an important aspect in working toward Debian's goal of being a universal operating system.</p> <p>Helge Kreutzmann <a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-i18n/2008/08/msg00172.html";>added</a>, that <q>this was only possible due to the tireless efforts of Christian to actually get the translations into Debian.</q> Christian Perrier spend a lot of time to coordinate new translations and upload packages containing new translations.</p> <p><strong>Policy for web apps session storage?</strong></p> <p>After several bugs regarding <a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2008/08/msg00271.html";>possible symlink attacks</a> were reported, Olivier Berger <a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2008/08/msg00340.html";>wonders</a> about a policy how web applications (or their framework) should handle storage of their session files. He noted that PHP already tries to prevent possible symlink attacks, by using /var/lib/php5 which is only readable by the root-user and automatically cleaned with a cronjob to prevent attacks by opening a lot of sessions. He especially wonders, if whether there's a similar approach for applications using perl and CGI::Session.</p> <p><strong>Usage of Package diffs?</strong></p> <p>Joerg Jasper <a href="http://blog.ganneff.de/blog/2008/09/01/pdiffs-1.html";>asked</a>, if the package diffs, a system to update the package list by downloading the differences between versions of that file, is used at all. Since he usually turns that feature of, which seems to him only slow apt down and wastes a lot of bandwidth of our mirror network.</p> <p>Several people already reported to use this feature and asked for it to stay. Others proposed to keep the feature, but to disable it by default.</p> <p><strong>people.debian.org to move to a new host and file transfer between Debian hosts</strong></p> <p>Peter Palfrader <a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2008/08/msg00012.html";>reported</a> that people.debian.org, a service offering web space for Debian Developers, will be moved to new host in late September ans asks all Developers using that service to check if all needed packages are available on the new host.</p> <p>This announcement lead to the <a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2008/08/msg00780.html";>questions</a> regarding the file transfer between different hosts of the Debian infrastructure. Peter <a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2008/08/msg00172.html";>summarized</a> possible options and asks for further feedback.</p> <p><strong>Other news</strong></p> <p>Joerg Jaspert <a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2008/08/msg00167.html";>announced</a>, that James Troup stepped down from his post as Debian Account Manager. We would like to thanks James for the hard work and dedication over many years.</p> <p>Ana Beatriz Guerrero Lopez <a href="http://ekaia.org/blog/2008/08/21/kde-41-backported-packages-for-lenny/";>announced</a> that since Lenny has been frozen, back ported KDE 4.1 packages are available now at <a href="http://kde4.debian.net/";>kde4.debian.net</a>.</p> <p>Joey Schulze <a href="http://www.infodrom.org/~joey/log/?200808311226";>reported</a> from the <a href="http://wiki.ffis.de/m68k/Meeting2008";>m68k porter meeting</a> which took place at the University of Kiel, Germany. The Meeting was streamed, so that people unable to attend in person could participate via IRC. The <a href="http://wiki.debian.org/M68k/Meetings/Kiel2008";>results</a> include bits about the port to the coldfire architecture as well as status updates for Sid and Lenny.</p> <p><strong>Important Debian Security Advisories</strong></p> <p>Debian's Security Team recently released advisories for these packages (among others): <a href="http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1629";>postfix</a>, <a href="http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1630";>linux-2.6</a>, <a href="http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1631";>libxml2</a> and <a href="http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1632";>tiff</a>.
