great although I'm not understanding why they need "calibre" instead of "pure" 
Debian. I'm definitely interested in sharing knowledge with you/them/anyone.

debian-hpc sounds nice, but I fear that it will eventually die as well as the 
group of people is very, very small. But at least I think it's worth a try.
