<h2>State of Debian 6.0 <q>Squeeze</q></h2>
<p>After the release team recently met in Paris they published <a
href="http://lists.debian.org/20101005202925.GU4622@halon.org.uk";>meeting
minutes and gave a release update</a>. Aside from updating the documentation
for point releases and deciding about the future of the <a
href="http://www.debian.org/volatile/";>volatile archive</a>, a major topic
was the progress of the upcoming release of Debian 6.0 <q>Squeeze</q>.
They called for content for the Release Notes, which should document all
potential problems during an upgrade. They also noted that all transitions
have been done, and named the current blockers of the release: <a
href="http://bugs.debian.org/571255";>a bug in udev</a> which might cause
problems during upgrades (a patch has been proposed in the meantime); a
<a href="http://bugs.debian.org/546528";>problem in the preinstallation
script of dash</a> (a patch has been proposed and is currently being
investigated); the need for debian-installer to reach its final
release; the lack of proper documentation in the Release Notes for <q>Squeeze</q> installs
and upgrades; and finally the requirement for the security archive to support the new source
format 3.0.</p>
<p>All in all the release team hopes to have these blockers sorted out by the
end of October, which would allow a release before Christmas. The release team
also points out that the help of everyone is needed to get this
accomplished, be it by squashing the remaining bugs, providing facilities
for real life bug squashing parties, writing the Release Notes, or
supporting translations.</p>
<p>Some real life bug squashing parties have already been announced for
<a href="http://wiki.debian.org/BSP2010/Paris";>Paris</a> and <a
href="http://lists.debian.org/1287061434-sup-6309@meteor.durcheinandertal.local";>Bern</a>.</p>
