Hi,
The section on the delayed queue still mentions the legacy ~tfheen queue on
gluck, while there's now an 'official' one on ftp-master:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2008/09/msg6.html
Attached patch updates the reference to reflect this new location, removes
obsolete dput instructions and links to the queue overview.
Thanks a lot for your patch.
