Sorry for the delay in replying - just got back from the UKUUG Linux
Developer conference in Bristol. Yes, I am still doing this - I have
made packages. What I am waiting for is a release, because until then
the code base changes too fast, and stripped binary packages in Debian
will cause backwards (in)compatibility problems with the existing
network (and/or they would need to be updated infeasibly often) or they
would cause many bugs to be reported which were either fixed, or would
be impossible to diagnose due to the lack of debugging symbols. I may
set up a daily snapshot deb build system in a week or two, until then
you'll just have to be patient. For now I'm off to Edinburgh for 4
days...

Regards,
Rob
