Let me take this change to thank all the people who have participated,
as either newbies or mentors, in the debbugs skill exchange at
DebConf11. While I couldn't make it, it's been great to see (on list) so
many interest about hacking the BTS: it's something we could really
benefit from.

In the meantime gobby.d.n has been resurrected and Philipp has made
available a dump of all DebConf11 documents; see [1]. In case you
haven't still retrieved it, you can find it at [2].


In case it's still needed, I hereby re-confirm that we do have the
resources as present to fund a debbugs sprint, and I'll be thrilled to
see that happening. I'd like to know whether you've received
acknowledgements from people interested and if you do have some
tentative dates / locations. We can consider flying someone across the
ocean to make this happen, although hardly more than a person (but feel
free to ask if you think it'd be useful!).

Finally, we are now also trying to enlarge sprint organization and you
can now post all questions and/or request for help to
<[email protected]>.

Let me know.
Cheers.
