Hi Tim After our discussion in September re packaging Hudson I ran a session at the Ubuntu Developer Summit (see [0]) at the end of October to discuss packaging of Hudson for Ubuntu. The session generated a-lot of interest from development teams both within and outside of Ubuntu. Its already being used informally in a number of projects and there is a-lot of appetite to formalise this as part of the platform.
The output from the session was that we would package Hudson from source during the Natty release cycle; the objective for this period is to deliver a base Hudson package and associated dependencies with a small sub-set of plugins (also packaged from source) through a Launchpad PPA. I've been assigned this blueprint and I can see it taking up the majority of my time for this release. I want to make sure that the work that we are doing in Ubuntu can be fed back into Debian; It would be good if we could collaborate appropriately to ensure that this happens.
