Hi!
My RSS feed just alerted me to the article "Grml packages in Debian" on the developer blog. http://blog.grml.org/archives/358-Grml-packages-in-Debian.html
I would like to point out that removing the packages from grml-testing leaves many people out of updates for a long time (until the packages have arrived in Debian Stable and some Ubuntu release).
Plus, the grml2usb page http://grml.org/grml2usb/ still points to grml-testing.
Please put the packages back into grml-testing and find a way to avoid a clash with Debian and Ubuntu repositories.
Thank you, Lupe Christoph

We're currently working on mirroring the (source) packages from unstable back into grml-testing. A course of action has been decided and hopefully our ftpmaster will find time to implement this soon.
We'll probably still clash with the Debian repositories, but there isn't a lot we could do about that.

grml-testing will now always have the latest version of all grml packages, including those that are uploaded to Debian unstable. There is a slight delay of up to 6 hours involved.
