Greetings,
Over the last weekend, I uploaded aptitude 0.1.6 "Are We There Yet?" to
experimental. This version is mostly just a rewrite around a new UI library,
but has a few bugfixes and often-requested features (such as splitscreening)
that were kept out of 0.0.x for design reasons.

I intend to package axmail: a simple mail user agent intended to provide the

Hi
What do you think about making a new list which would be used to
announce new packages in Debian ?
It could be done automatically, when package is uploaded for the first
time. It would contain description of package etc.
DWN includes some info about new packages, but it's not very
informative.

The upstream source was taken from RedHat 7.1
