Debian Lenny has been released this week-end.
GPLHost is proud to announce that, after 8 years of hard effort, we can for the first time, see DTC (and dtc-xen) directly integrated into Debian. More than this: for the first time, a web hosting control panel is in a major UNIX distribution, and it's our product that leads the way.
For us, having DTC released in Lenny this week-end also means many other things for our developments. First, our own Debian repository will NOT contain the stable version anymore, as it's pretty useless to do so when all our packages are directly in Debian. We will continue to maintain the 0.29.x branch, but only for having it in constant good shape for Debian.
GPLHost's ftp area will now be dedicated to supporting other distributions (mainly: CentOS and FreeBSD) and for the Debian "unstable" version of our packages. The version 0.30.1 of DTC (eg: the current Git) has already been tested successfully by many, and it is planned that very soon, we release it to public in our FTP area. I will write about this and make the corresponding announcement when that time comes.
I'd like to thanks to all contributors, testers, and translators that helped to make this major release point and achievement possible. As there are a lot of people involved, it is easy to miss somebody, so it is risky to try naming people. I still want to name Cristian Livadaru for the Cyrus support, George Vieira for the Mailgroup alias patch, Thomas Morgan for the nice bwoup skin that is now the default, Olivier Soille for his help on the documentation (in our wiki), his bug reports and the paperboard skin (that will be on the next release), Daniel Baumann and Roberto C. Sanchez that sponsored the upload into Debian and helped with the package quality checkings, and of course all the people at GPLHost that contributed: Manuel Amador, Damien Mascord and William Agasvari.

Helping is not easy when request is not precise: please past logs, don't use "it said" or similar impersonal subjects, and try to be verbose and exhaustive on your problem description.
