Hi,

 Resurrecting an ancient tradition of sending my status reports to this
 list, *cough*.  Sorry for the long abscence of reports.  Also, I'm
 adding misc non-technical bits to this report which you might find of
 interest.

 * Took a day of leave Tuesday
 * Started looking for tickets for UDS Prague, but still holding off in
   case I would attend FOSSCamp
 * Quite a lot of sponsoring reviews/comments
 * Still slightly affected by not having Internet at home
 * Sought more quantitative information on the topic of translations of
   mobile packages about the string/UI freeze
 * Reviewing of mobile packages (not sponsored yet); I tend to raise the
   bar a little as I think the quality of the packages might have been a
   bit too low to ask universe/main-sponsors to sponsor the mobile teams
   uploads
 * Worked on Pimlico:
   - Discussions with upstream to get some information on the state of
     the stack, especially the Hildon port:
     . Current focus seems to be on OpenMoko ports
     . Tasks and Dates pretty stable and ported to Hildon
     . Sync is a bit behind; doesn't seem reasonable to consider it for
       the time being
     . Contacts has been completely refactored (we package the new
       "hito" branch as contacts-snapshot -- but an older version with a
       pile of Hildon fixes); the new upstream layout is very clean, but
       only has an up-to-date OpenMoko port and would ideally need
       porting to Gtk+ and then to Hildon; mjg59 did most of the
       contacts-snapshots fixes, but we need to get these upstream and
       update to a newer tree -- I'd guesstimate at least a solid week
       of work for the ports
   - Cleaned up packaging and prepared new upstream releases of tasks
     and dates against the upstream packaging tree
   - Reworked the upstream build process to build in two flavours:
     standard (stock Gtk+) and Hildon; this gives us Hildonized packages
     under all arches such as i386/amd64 (and armel if we add it); this
     is all merged upstream as well as all the Ubuntu patches (or
     equivalent fixes) -- except a dates patch which landed in trunk
     after the 0.4.5 release; packages currently sitting in Debian NEW,
     I'll merge them when they come out

   Bye,
