+<h2><a name="1">Release update</a></h2>
+
+<p>Adeodato Simó, on behalf of the release team, sent a
+<a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2009/02/msg00000.html">release
+update</a> about the upcoming release of Debian GNU/Linux 5.0
+<q>Lenny</q>, which might be released during the weekend of 14 February
+2009.</p>
+
+<p>With the recent
+<a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2008/12/msg00006.html">second
+release candidate</a> of the debian-installer for lenny, the archive has
+now gone into <q>deep freeze</q>, which means that only packages fixing
+release critical bugs will be allowed to enter <q>Lenny</q>. People wanting to help
+can fix these bugs, test the debian-installer, or help with the
+<a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-doc/2008/11/msg00034.html">release
+notes</a>.</p>
+
+<p>Finally he mentioned that a <q>Lenny-and-a-half</q> release is also
+planned, which will add drivers needed for newer hardware.</p>

+
+<h2><a name="2">Debian Summer of Code '08: where are they now? </a></h2>
+
+<p>Obey Arthur Liu gave a retrospective
+about this year's <a href="http://code.google.com/soc/2008/">Google
+Summer of Code</a> projects,
+where students were paid by Google to work on various programming tasks
+for free software projects. (See <a
+href="http://www.milliways.fr/2009/01/20/debian-2008-where-now-1/">Part
+1</a>, <a
+href="http://www.milliways.fr/2009/01/28/debian-2008-where-now-2/">Part
+2</a>, <a
+href="http://www.milliways.fr/2009/02/01/debian-2008-where-now-2-5/">Part
+2.5</a> and <a
+href="http://www.milliways.fr/2009/02/02/debian-2008-where-now-3/">Part
+3</a>.)</p>
+
+<p>Debian had <a href="http://www.debian.org/News/2008/20080427">twelve
+projects</a> granted, one of which was unfortunately abandoned for
+personal reasons. The other eleven projects all succeeded to some extent:
+some of them are already in use, while others need more development time
+before they can be fully used.</p>
+
+<p>At <a href="http://www.fosdem.org/2009/">FOSDEM</a>, Arthur <a
+href="http://www.milliways.fr/2009/02/08/fosdem09-gsoc08-slides/">gave
+some suggestions</a> on how to perform better in the 2009 Summer of Code
+and volunteered to help implement them.</p>
+
+
+<a name="3"><h2>Dedicating Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 <q>Lenny</q> to Thiemo
+<q>ths</q> Seufer</h2></a>
+
+<p>As already announced, the Debian Project has decided to dedicate its upcoming
+release of Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 <q>Lenny</q> to Thiemo Seufer, who died on
+December 26th, 2008 in a tragic car accident.</p>
+
+<p>To this end, Christoph Berg <a
+href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2009/02/msg00001.html">called</a>
+for GPG signatures of <a
+href="http://people.debian.org/~myon/dedication-5.0.txt">a particular text file</a>, which will be placed on our mirrors
+in the directory <tt>docs/dedication</tt> along with all the signatures.
+Every Debian developer, maintainer, translator, or contributor
+in any other field is welcome to join us in signing this dedication.</p>
+
+
+<h2><a name="4">Open Source study conducted by Heise Open</a></h2>
+
+<p>The German open source portal <a
+href="http://www.heise.de/open/">Heise Open</a> conducted a survey on the
+use of open source software in German businesses. 1,312 companies
+participated: 30% were from companies with less than ten employees, 51%
+were small and medium-sized business and 19% had more than 500
+employees.</p>
+
+<p>Debian was ranked as the leading server distribution used by 47% of
+all companies and as the second most used distribution on the desktop
+with 29.9% (for companies with more than 500 employees the adoption rate
+was higher, at about 37%).  The full survey (German language only) can be
+found <a
+href="http://www.heise.de/open/Trendstudie-Open-Source--/artikel/126682">here</a>.</p>
+
+
+<h2><a name="5">Bits from the DPL</a></h2>
+
+<p>Steve McIntyre published <a
+href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2009/01/msg00005.html">bits from the DPL</a>.  While
+some of the points in his report have already been covered in the <a
+href="http://www.debian.org/News/project/2009/01">previous edition of the Debian Project News</a>
+(such as the outcome of the recent votes, and plans for <q>Lenny</q>), others have not,
+such as the appointment of two additional members to the Debian System Administrators group: Luca Filipozzi
+and Stephen Gran. He thanked James Troup for his long service in this
+team.</p>
+
+<p>He also brought up the need for discussions in the community after
+Lenny has been released over issues such as constitutional clarifications
+and organizational changes. To help track these topics, Miriam Ruiz has
+created a <a href="http://wiki.debian.org/DiscussionsAfterLenny">wiki
+page</a>.</p>
+
+<p>Finally he mentioned the declassification of the archive of the
+debian-private list, which is used for internal discussion.  Three years
+ago <a href="http://www.debian.org/vote/2005/vote_002">it was decided</a>
+to declassify (at least some of) the contents of the debian-private
+mailing list, so volunteers are now needed to work on this.</p>
+
+
+<h2><a name="6">Google portable devices running Debian</a></h2>
+
+<p>Several people have been working on a way to install Debian GNU/Linux
+on their T-Mobile G1 Android phones (See for example <a
+href="http://technologyheaven.blogspot.com/2009/01/google-portable-devices-runs-debian.html">here</a>,
+<a href="http://www.saurik.com/id/10">here</a>  or <a
+href="http://www.androidfanatic.com/cms/community-forums.html?func=view&catid=9&id=251#251">here</a>).
+They have succeeded in running a full fledged Debian OS on their G1
+Android cellphones, while retaining all the features which allow it to
+function as a cellphone such as receiving and making calls. This is
+achieved by creating a chroot environment which can invoked from a shell,
+thus making the whole range of Debian applications available to be run on
+that device.</p>
+
+<p>Joey Hess, long term developer of the Debian installation system, <a
+href="http://kitenet.net/~joey/blog/entry/investigation_of_an_inelegant_installer/">analysed</a>
+their installation system and came to the conclusion that - while working
+- it's not as technically elegant as he would wish it to be, since it
+mainly extracts an archive containing the chroot environment instead of
+calling debootstrap, which would be the correct way to set up a chroot.
+More generally speaking, he sees it as a pity that when people want to
+get Debian on a new device only about half of them seem to do it right,
+by modifying d-i and sending the modifications back to the installer
+team.</p>
+
+
+<h2><a name="7">Best practice in team maintenance of packages</a></h2>
+
+<p>Gregor Herrmann <a
+href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-qa/2009/02/msg00006.html">summarized</a>
+the results of a Birds of a Feather session during the last Debian
+Conference about best practice in team maintenance of packages. Topics
+included bringing members of different packaging teams together; getting
+an overview of different work flows, tools, and challenges; compiling
+generally useful 'models of good practice'; and defining possible areas
+for cooperation/tasks of mutual interest. A
+<a href="http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Resources">wiki page</a> has been set
+up for the purpose of collecting tools relevant for packaging teams.</p>
+
+
+<h2><a name="8">DDPortfolio service available</a></h2>
+
+<p>Jan Dittberner <a
+href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2009/01/msg00474.html">announced</a>
+his <a href="http://debianstuff.dittberner.info/ddportfolioservice/">DDPortfolio</a>
+service.  This service can create a page of useful links collecting
+together the other web based information services for a given Debian
+Maintainer or Developer.</p>
+
+
+<h2><a name="9">Bits from the Policy Team, call for volunteers</a></h2>
+
+<p>Debian's policy team <a
+href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2009/01/msg00006.html">announced</a>
+that version 3.8.1 of Debian's packaging Policy is in preparation and
+will be released very shortly after Lenny has been released.  It includes
+12 bug fixes and 7 normative changes (affecting the requirements set by
+Policy rather than the wording, presentation, or supporting
+documentation).</p>
+
+<p>However, there is a general need for more people working on Policy,
+including simply participating in discussions on the mailing lists and
+evaluating proposals.  There's also a need for experienced Debian
+developers who have the time and background required to be full Policy
+delegates as well as helping to convert Debian Policy from
+DebianDoc-SGML to DocBook and formalizing a new structure that would
+make it easier to extract bits of information from Policy requirements.</p>
+
+
+<h2><a name="10">List statistics for Debian mailing lists</a></h2>
+
+<p>Andreas Tille <a
+href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2009/01/msg00161.html">created
+some</a> statistics about Debian's mailing lists, their usage and their
+contributors. He tried to detect <q>healthy</q> projects as well as projects
+in need of help, such as Debian's OpenOffice.org maintainers, who have
+been looking for help for quite some time.</p>
+ 
+
+<h2><a name="11">Debian Project at SCaLE 2009</a></h2>
+
+<p>From Friday 20th February 2009 to Sunday 22nd February 2009, the

+Southern California Linux Expo in Los Angeles, USA. For further details,

+outside the Debian Project.</p>
+
+<p>J. A. Watson was <a
+href="http://www.linuxtoday.com/infrastructure/2009012302335OSHW">pleasantly surprised</a>
+by his experience installing Debian on Alpha machines. <q>The obvious choice was Debian, as it is
+well known as a good server distribution, and they still have Alpha distributions and installation
+instructions. [..] Less than an hour, and it was up and
+running like a charm.</q></p>
+
+<p>A long time outstanding serious <a
+href="http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=211765">bug</a>
+concerning the licensing of several GLX related files shipped with the
+package xorg-server has finally been closed by Bdale Garbee now that the
+affected material has been re-licensed under a license considered free
+according to the <a
+href="http://www.debian.org/social_contract#guidelines">Debian Free
+Software Guidelines</a>, the SGI Free Software License B, version
+2.0.</p>
+
+<p>Jörg Jaspert <a
+href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2009/01/msg00008.html">announced</a>
+the creation of a new archive signing key.  The key will not be used yet,
+but was created to be shipped with Lenny and put in use either with the
+first point release for Lenny or on the first of July, when the old key
+expires.</p>
+
+<p>The <a href="http://debconf.org/">DebConf</a> organizer team will soon decide where the eleventh annual Debian Conference will
