We have a lenny security update about ready to release (just waiting on a couple builds). I've merged those changes into the lenny branch and I can upload an o-p-u build tomorrow (which I'll do, barring any objection). This should allow for a d-i upload before the weekend. I don't think a d-i upload is strictly necessary - we haven't added any hardware support since the last point release - but it is probably a good idea given the large number of changes since the last update. For Squeeze it would be cool to have the kernel in for testing end of next week (16/17th). The d-i upload should be there the middle of week 39, October 1st at the latest. base-files can be uploaded now, as it will be held in NEW until closing time anyway.
