 4. Autopkgtest in Debian Med packages
 =====================================
 
+We tried hard to add autopkgtests to all packages where some upstream
+test suite exists or we als tried to create some tests on our own.
+Since we consider testing of scientific software a very important
+feature this work was highly in focus for the Jessie release.  When
+doing so we were able to drastically enhance the reliability of packages
+and found new formerly hidden dependency relations.  Perhaps the hardest
+work was to run the full test suite of python-biopython[4a] which also
+has uncovered some hidden bugs in the upstream code on architectures
+that are not so frequently used in the field of bioinformatics.  This
+was made possible by the very good support of upstream who were very
+helpful to solve the issues we reported.
+
+However, we are not at 100% coverage of autopkgtest and we will keep on
+working on our packages in the next release cycle for Jessie+1.

+7. Updated team metrics
+=======================
+
+The team metrics graphs on the Debian Med Blend entry page[7a] were
