Debian-arm definitely won't be ready for Slink - we hope to provide a
release that is up to the standards of the other Debian ports, and
with the whirlwind of development surrounding the Netwinder, we feel
that it is best to wait, and track upstream work, rather than putting
our resources into stabilizing a version we feel comfortable
releasing.
I'm not speaking for anyone but myself, but I feel that this is
probably an accurate reflection of the thoughts of the other team
members.
Thanks once again for the letter - it's nice to receive some
recognition now and then. As always, a big thanks to Jim, as well,
who has really driven a lot of this.
