Re: Add armhf architecture to our APT source for Raspberry Pi users?

the single ftpmaster hereby announces his (vague) plan to get rid of the 
Debian Edu ftparchive as soon as the Debian archive has implemented what Jörg 
described in his email http://lists.debian.org/87y5btehw3.fsf@gkar.ganneff.de 
called "Debian developer repositories in Debian"

 PPAMAIN: a PPA following all rules of the Debian archive and integrated
          into the archive. NEW packages need a full check, policy has
          to be followed, the usual deal.

So basically follow all the same rules as our archive currently does (which 
are relaxed wheezy rules) as much as possible. The most notible diff is that 
with our archive we can add our uploaders according to our rules, while for 
PPAMAIN uploads the key has to be in the Debian maintainers (DM) keyring.

But those are implementations details anyway, first these "Debian PPAs" need 
to exist anyway.

With PPAMAIN we should be able to have jessie-test and jessie just as we have 
today, we might even be able to move wheezy-test and wheezy over, we'll see.


cheers,
	Holger
