Sorry for the delay in replying - just got back from the UKUUG Linux Developer conference in Bristol. Yes, I am still doing this - I have made packages. What I am waiting for is a release, because until then the code base changes too fast, and stripped binary packages in Debian will cause backwards (in)compatibility problems with the existing network (and/or they would need to be updated infeasibly often) or they would cause many bugs to be reported which were either fixed, or would be impossible to diagnose due to the lack of debugging symbols. I may set up a daily snapshot deb build system in a week or two, until then you'll just have to be patient. For now I'm off to Edinburgh for 4 days...
