FYI, 0.7.0~rc1 debs are available in a new PPA for experimental releases: http://launchpad.net/~cassandra-ubuntu/+archive/experimental
When 0.7.0 is officially released they will be available in the stable release PPA here: http://launchpad.net/~cassandra-ubuntu/+archive/stable These are mostly the same packages as available in the official Cassandra archive, but are intended to provide any Ubuntu specific integration that may be necessary (thus far, this has not been necessary). With 0.7, there will be an effort to get Cassandra to build with as many of the system java libraries as possible, rather than the embedded jars.
