An update: the btrfs-tools to btrfs-progs rename was uploaded to NEW earlier today. I've applied to join debian-boot both by email and on Alioth. Please approve the request if you'd like me to push my changes to Alioth. Otherwise, please let me know you'd prefer a diff, or to pull from my github tree. It seems I forgot to CC you my 9 April reply. Sorry about that! Sincerely, Nicholas
