I didnt notice it exist until i search the archive - Are you in the LDAP tree ? db.debian.org ?

Hmmm - I asked Joey about it - And he said - As long as the packages itself are ok there is no reason why not to install them - But probably we have to fight with James :) > Another point is: should we upload glibc2.0 based packages?

There is backward compatibility with glibc 2.0 /2.2 - So we can upload the 2.0 packages. I am currently not able to even build glibc 2.2 so i think it might take a bit until it stabelizes - We should start build glibc 2.2 packages as soon as there are glibc 2.2. source packages for debian (Wil come after potato is released).
