"Keeping track with packaging software which is under heavy development can be time-consuming. I noticed this while packaging Conkeror, because there was quite a demand for up-to-date packages, especially from upstream themself. So recently on the IRC channel #conkeror the idea of automatically built Debian packages came up.
"I already mentioned a few times in the blog that I’m working on a Debian package of the Conkeror web browser. And now, after a lot of fine-tuning (and I still further new ideas how to improve the package ;-) Conkeror is finally in the NEW queue and hopefully will hit unstable in a few days..."
"...When I started Conkeror, I was a bit surprised. The browser is stripped down to the very basics and you have to configure it yourself. It comes with a brief tutorial on how to do the very basic things and you can find a lot of configuration tips at the Conkeror Wiki.
"Fellow conkerors, Wikipedia is one of the most visited websites on the web today, so it would be ridiculous to not improve the experience using a Conkeror page mode! Wikipedia mode is now officially in the git repo..."

"I use Carsten Dominik’s great emacs package org-mode for project planning, appointments and TODOs... One cool feature is that it integrates nicely with the remember package. So when an idea comes into my mind I need to remember for later, I hit M-x org-remember RET which presents me a buffer with a custom template, I type my note and hit C-c C-c.
"Hi everybody, a picture is worth a thousand words. And thanks to screenshots.debian.net[0] this finally comes true for Debian packages. Several people have proposed a service to provide screenshots for them. So after getting other developers' opinions and suggestions I sat down and crafted a web application that allows to upload and provide screenshots..." --
