Looking Forward to Hardy Heron

Things are chugging along for the Gutsy release of Ubuntu Studio. All the art packages are in the repos and we are moving towards getting a testing disk out into the wild. I have not done anything really for Gutsy on the packaging front, but am looking to change that.

As for my goals for Hardy, I would really like to try and get Celtx into universe. The initial outlook is a bit bleak, the upstream code ships standard libraries and I will have to modify the upstream tarball but I will look at how other Firefox based apps are packaged in Ubuntu. Jussi has also encouraged me to look at packaging Genpo for Hardy.

I will be posting progress information on the packaging of those two apps as it goes along. Hopefully I will have plenty of free time to do both this sort of work and for film (Which is the whole reason I am in England for this year :P)
