Lenny is out, Squeeze is available - ARM has gone.



OK, lots of changes here - Lenny is now stable, Grip and Crush have
been released, Squeeze is the new testing and ARM has left the
building.
;-)

As soon as your favourite Debian mirrors update, ARM binaries will have
disappeared from testing and unstable. This has obvious consequences
for Grip - v1.0 is the only one that will be able to support ARM as
there will be no more new packages to process for ARM in Debian
unstable or testing. ARM will be dropped as a supported Grip
architecture - although I'll keep it around for now, until any bitrot
problems become obvious.

Crush can continue to support ARM for a while but that is uncertain -
any build failures on ARM that do not also affect armel will simply not
get fixed.

I'll see how that works out but I will be starting an armel autobuilder
fairly soon to make those packages available for Crush "squeeze". I'll
also be starting the Code Audit and working through all remaining
issues to get i386, mips and mipsel added to Crush.

The release announcements have now been sent.
