Glad I can help. I live by the motto that if you want something done you
have to do it yourself, or at least take the initiative as far as
possible if you can't do it all. In the end it's just scratching an inch
and sharing the scratcher. :)

Thanks for the fix. I'll review the tasks files to verify that mistake
is fixed everywhere.

Maybe add a Blends tasks model to Config::Model so you can just cme
check/fix the task file?

I'm not sure if the Debian NEW queue is of much interest for Ubuntu, it
won't be synced before it hits unstable. For Debian it's nice to see in
which part of Debian each version lives.
For the Ubuntu thermometer it's more useful to have an overview of the
versions available in the Ubuntu GIS PPA. Those are packages from the
current state of the Debian GIS VCS and not the synced packages from
Debian unstable.
But I need to write a gatherer to get the Packages from the PPA first.
Also I'm not sure if the UDD folks would like that many extra binary
packages in the database. I've have to evaluate the amount of new data
it will introduce.
Kind Regards,
Bas
