Thanks!  I'll give it a spin next week.

I haven't tried for a while, so probably it's somewhat behind debian.

Currently we don't; we've decided to upgrade the servers which needed
it to Lenny.  I've set up a local APT repository for testing, so
backports.org eligibility doesn't matter much for us anyway.  Maybe it
isn't worth releasing a semi-official 2.0 backport, which we would be
semi-expected to maintain, when the Lenny release (and thus the 2.1
backport) is so close (at least I hope it is)...  What do you think?
