Hi Kjetil,

Progress is being made, just slowly. The current binaries are in my Virutoso PPA on Launchpad [1] and refer also to the collab-maint project on Alioth [2] for Debian. The June 25th date I think is the Debian Import Freeze, so if we miss that (which seems likely) then at least we have until Feature Freeze on August 27th to get the package approved for 9.10. Obviously it would be better for all to get this in via the sync with Debian and I got a mail from Arthur a couple of days ago to say that he is back working on this, but I don't know what timeframe he is anticipating.

There are some issues still (e.g. versioning of shared libraries, old WebKit version), as well as pieces missing completely (e.g. PHP/ASP hosting plugins, ZeroConf support), but maybe it will be sufficient for an initial release with just a little work...I don't have much experience with packaging or the relevant processes/workflows myself, so it's hard to say.

Some help in testing the current packaging would be useful in any case.

Regards,
Will

Any status on this? It is only ten days to go now for it to comfortably go
into Ubuntu 9.10, so it is really quite urgent...

Kind regards
