Yeah! They're really motivated, and there are a few debian-folk interested in the project (including myself!), as well as a bunch of raspberry pi foundation folks who would like to see it as the primary image. Raspbian basically syncs the Debian archive and rebuilds locally (on a few beefy ARM build nodes), so if it's in Debian, it'll be in Raspbian! :) The chances of it becoming official Debian are slim (since the raspi stuff is just armhf rebuilt for a minimum of armv6, sorta like if you were to rebuild a distro that was i686 for the i386), since the long-term sustainability is shorter then one would expect (keep in mind Debian releases *roughly* every two years, so how many stable cycles could one expect this port to live) Although I'm not very involved with them, I'd be happy to try to answer questions (or forward the questions) :) Cheers, Paul > > -- > Job Board: [3]http://jobs.nodejs.org/ > Posting guidelines: > [4]https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > Groups "nodejs" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected] > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected] > For more options, visit this group at > [5]http://groups.google.com/group/nodejs?hl=en?hl=en > > References > > Visible links > 1. mailto:[email protected] > 2. https://github.com/gflarity/node_pi > 3. http://jobs.nodejs.org/ > 4. https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines > 5. http://groups.google.com/group/nodejs?hl=en?hl=en -- .''`.
