+<p><strong>Debian Architectures Statistics.</strong> Petter Reinholdtsen
+<a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2006/07/msg01325.html">\
+reported</a> about the architecture distribution in Debian, as reported
+by the <a href="http://popcon.debian.org">popularity contest</a>. He
+noted that the <a href="$(HOME)/ports/arm/">ARM</a> port is gaining interest
+among more users whereas the <a href="$(HOME)/ports/alpha/">Alpha</a> and <a
+href="$(HOME)/ports/sparc/">Sparc</a> ports are losing market shares. Joey Hess <a
+href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2006/07/msg01362.html">\
+suggested</a> that the Linksys NSLU2 machines are a
+good reason for this increase of ARM users.  The <a
+href="http://packages.debian.org/unstable/misc/popularity-contest">\
+popularity contest</a> package is also used as a base to decide the
+installation CD a package will be in.</p>
+
+<p><strong>New Information Media for Users.</strong> Wolfgang Lonien <a
+href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2006/08/msg00187.html">\
+announced</a> the creation of <a href="http://www.thedebianuser.org">The
+Debian User</a>, a website that will aggregate thoughts and comments of
+Debian users. The same day, Andreas Barth <a
+href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2006/08/msg00030.html">\
+announced</a> the launch of <a
+href="http://times.debian.net">DebianTimes</a>, which  is intended
+to deliver larger and smaller nice items to developers and
+interested Debian users. DebianTimes is available as html-page and RSS <a
+href="http://times.debian.net/?format=rss20.xml">feed</a>.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Bits from the Stable Release Team.</strong> Andreas Barth <a
+href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2006/08/msg00035.html">\
+announced</a> that Dann Frazier became a member of the
+Stable Release Team to handle and improve kernel updates.  A new <a
+href="http://ftp-master.debian.org/proposed-updates.html">webpage</a> created
+by Martin Zoble-Helas is also available to track packages that are waiting to
+be accepted for proposed-updates.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Debian adopted in the Extremadura.</strong> The project <a
+href="$(HOME)/News/2006/20060803">announced</a> that the local <a
+href="http://www.linex.org/">flavour</a> of Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 has been
+adopted by the local government of the autonomous region of Extremadura in
+Spain.  All workers of the public administration will also use Open Document
+Formats for their office applications as well as PDF for document exchange.
+Future versions of additional software also need to be distributed under a
+free license.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Debian for the Uninitiated.</strong> Lars Wirzenius <a
+href="http://liw.iki.fi/liw/log/2006-07.html#20060728c">wondered</a> how
+usable Debian with GNOME is for the uninitiated, or more specifically, for
+someone who has been using Windows for a number of years, and switches to
+Debian.  The experiment will continue for a couple of months.  The first use
+went pretty well, with only a couple of real problems which he outlined.</p>
+
 <p><strong>Security Updates.</strong> You know the drill.  Please make sure
 that you update your systems if you have any of these packages installed.</p>
