I used to package each and every b1, b2 and b3, be ready for rc1, and be
the first to release a working *and tested* release of OpenStack in
Debian. Since I'm no longer paid to do that, I just can't. I already
skipped Ocata, and yes, I will ignore these, and start the packaging
work *after* the official release. That is of course, unless some
companies offer to sponsor my work again... So far, each and every of
such proposal went to nowhere.

Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)
