Credits for Debian Med on the Amazon cloud.

2013-09-14 Thread Charles Plessy
Dear all,

At Debconf 13, Andreas received a 1,000 $ credit for Debian Med from Amazon Web
Services via James Bromberger, and handed it over to me.

I have set up an account and can add Debian Med members as users to run virtual
machines until we finish spending the credit.

The account is backed by my personal visa card, so I will probably limit access
when we are close to the 1,000 $ spending.

This said, if we use small virtual machines (t1.tiny is often sufficient), the
credit will last for quite long.

Right now, I am using it to work on the transition to Apache 2.4 for
emboss-explorer, and just realised that it is also broken in Wheezy for other
reasons.  Ouch :(

Many thanks to Amazon, James and Andreas for making this possible !

Charles

Thanks a lot Benjamin and Faheem,

if we do not have a better answer, then I think that the best would be to
summarise the result of your investigations in debian/README.source and
re-upload.

By the way, I also found the Munsell data in psychtoolbox-3, maybe
this can be mentionned as well.

Have a nice day,

Charles

Done, for unstable and stable, that was also broken.

After the stable update is accepted, I will blog and post about the future of
emboss-explorer.

Thanks again to James and Amazon for sponsoring the cloud images that I used to
prepare the packages.
