Hi.
As many of you might already have noticed, I recently didn't have as
much time for Debian related work as I'd wish (or as the size of the
packages I'm involved in would require). It is now about 2
years since the Debian Accessibility project started, and the number

I noticed that buildd doesn't build brltty since 2.98-2.
Well, I know I originally just had i386 in the architecture field, but
I am currently working with the upstream maintainer to
fix alot of different architectures, and it would be nice
if buildd could build brltty again on all archs
