-## Metapackages ##
-
-New available metapackages serve to install a useful set of packages 
-for someone working in a particular scientific field.
-
-
-### Numerical computation  ###
-
-This metapackage will install Debian Science packages useful 
-for numerical computation. The packages provide an array oriented 
-calculation and visualisation system for scientific computing and 
-data analysis. 
-
-All the packages from this category can be installed using the 
-following command:
-
-    sudo apt-get install science-numericalcomputation
-
-#### Esys-particle ####
-
-ESyS-Particle is Open Source software for particle-based numerical 
-modelling. The software implements the Discrete Element Method (DEM), 
-a widely used technique for modelling processes involving large 
-deformations, granular flow and/or fragmentation. ESyS-Particle is 
-designed for execution on parallel supercomputers, clusters or 
-multi-core PCs running a Linux-based operating system. The C++ 
-simulation engine implements spatial domain decomposition via the 
-Message Passing Interface (MPI). A Python wrapper API provides 
-flexibility in the design of numerical models, specification of 
-modelling parameters and contact logic, and analysis of simulation 
-data. ESyS-Particle has been utilised to simulate earthquake 
-nucleation, comminution in shear cells, silo flow, rock fragmentation, 
-and fault gouge evolution, to name but a few applications:
-
-    sudo apt-get install esys-particle
-
-
-#### Lammps ####
-
-LAMMPS is a classical molecular dynamics code, and an acronym for 
-Large-scale Atomic/Molecular Massively Parallel Simulator.
-LAMMPS has potentials for soft materials (biomolecules, polymers) and 
-solid-state materials (metals, semiconductors) and coarse-grained or 
-mesoscopic systems. It can be used to model atoms or, more generically, 
-as a parallel particle simulator at the atomic, meso, or continuum scale.
-LAMMPS runs on single processors or in parallel using message-passing 
-techniques and a spatial-decomposition of the simulation domain. 
-The code is designed to be easy to modify or extend with new functionality:
-
-    sudo apt-get install lammps
-
-#### Liggghts ####
-
-LIGGGHTS stands for LAMMPS improved for general granular and granular 
-heat transfer simulations. It is  is an Open Source Discrete Element 
-Method Particle Simulation Software:
-    
-    sudo apt-get install liggghts 
-
-#### Yade ####
-
-Yet Another Dynamic Engine.
-Extensible open-source framework for discrete numerical models, 
-focused on Discrete Element Method. The computation parts are written 
-in c++ using flexible object model, allowing independent implementation 
-of new algorithms and interfaces. Python is used for rapid and concise 
-scene construction, simulation control, postprocessing and debugging:
-
-    sudo apt-get install yade 
-
-### Simulations  ###
-
-This metapackage will install Debian Science packages that are used 
-to do simulations in different fields of science.
-
-All the packages from this category can be installed using the 
-following command:
-
-    sudo apt-get install science-simulations 
-
-#### Sumo ####
-
-Simulation of Urban MObility (SUMO). 
-SUMO is an open source, highly portable, microscopic road traffic 
-simulation package designed to handle large road networks. 
-
-    sudo apt-get install sumo 
+The metapackages serve to install a useful set of packages 
+for someone working in a particular scientific field. Since
+Squeeze-release have been added 3 new sets of packages:
+
+* [**Simulations**](http://blends.alioth.debian.org/science/tasks/simulations): 
+  contains the packages that are used to do simulations 
+  in different fields of science.
+* [**High energy physics (devel)**](http://blends.alioth.debian.org/science/tasks/highenergy-physics-dev): 
+  installs Debian Science packages related to 
+  development of High Energy Physics applications, which is a branch of physics 
+  that studies the elementary subatomic constituents of matter and radiation, 
+  and their interactions.
+* [**Physics-dev**](http://blends.alioth.debian.org/science/tasks/physics-dev): 
+  packages which are helpful for development of applications for 
+  Physics and Mathematics.
