The volatile.debian.org stuff is going away, and it will be getting a home on 
the core infrastructure.  Throughout the Squeeze lifetime, squeeze-updates 
will be provided and have clamav and similar updates.

Also, stable-updates will be a symlink to squeeze-updates until Wheezy is 
released.

(This, plus bringing backports in to the core infrastructure, seems to be part 
of a trend to make the Debian mirrors look more like the Ubuntu mirrors.  In 
this case, I think that's a good thing.)
