Hello,

Now that Redmine is running again, I spent few hours in cleaning its
tickets and reorganizing them with the help of Sergey concerning bug
reports [1]. As a result I introduced several new releases in Redmine,
the two nearest ones in time are:

* 2013-02 [2], the latest development version based on Debian Squeeze,
kind of v1.99

* 2.0 Hyperborea [3], aka. 2013-05, the successor of Gondwana, planned
for April/May

I should also add updates of Hyperborea, but will see for this later,
when it'll be time.

[2] http://team.doudoulinux.org/projects/doudoulinux-cd/versions/14
[3] http://team.doudoulinux.org/projects/doudoulinux-cd/versions/15

The objectives of 2013-02 are mainly to ship a working new installer and
a working persistence tool. The objectives of 2.0 Hyperborea are mainly
to solve several internationalization issues, to redesign our website
and to make a deep update of its content. I'm planning to freeze our
website by the publication of 2013-02 so that we get enough time to
rework and translate its content. Note that tasks related to the website
are not all in Redmine yet.

Also the idea is to publish Hyperborea “as is”, with its main issues
solved though! It won't be a perfect release (can a release be perfect?)
but it will be a large step forward compared to Gondwana. Of course any
help would be appreciated. If you believe you can work on a ticket or
more, if you have additional ideas or criticism, please feel free to
contact me or to expand this thread.

Concerning the development version, after 2013-02 is out, it will move
to Debian Wheezy quite quickly I hope. We need this change for our ARM™
releases and also because I'd like to stick to Debian release schedule
closer than we are currently doing, particularly because of device
drivers for recent hardware. This means, yes, that Hyperborea should not
live so long a time, maybe one year or even less.

JM.
