Debian on Freerunner (Openmoko)

[Yaroslav Halchenko <debian@onerussian.com>]

I think that it is great news imho (sorry for not ordered url list)

Despite the bold claim "there are no plans for a Debian-based version
of the phone" from previously featured article [1], enthusiastic users
and Debian developers [6] do run Debian on their Freerunners [2] and
Debian is listed among other distributions [3] which power-up the only
open-sourced phone in the existence.  Basic phone functionality is still
TODO but there is active development and discussions [4] ongoing, thus
successful reports are flowing [5].
