ToDo List

Not started:
  • provide Contents files, so searching with auto-apt and apt-file is possible
  • provide jigdo files for creating your own cd images

Currently working on:
  • restructure repository, move from symlinks to pool structure

After release of Debian 3.1:
  • use 'bpo' instead 'backports.org' as extension in versionnumber
  • try to use only packages from testing, to ensure that backports are stable
  • don't backport security related packages, e.g. bind or openssh
  • sign packages with a valid gnupg key
