+<p><strong>New SPARC development machine.</strong> Martin Michlmayr
+<a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2006/11/msg00138.html">
+informed</a> that Sun has donated a new Sun Fire T2000 to the Debian
+project. The machine will be used for the Debian <a href="
+$(HOME)/ports/sparc">SPARC</a> port and consists of 8 UltraSparc T1
+processor cores, 32 GB of RAM and 2 x 70 GB of hard disk space. The
+machine is currently not in the debian.org domain to give external
+people access to it. People who want to have access should contact <a
+href="mailto:waldi at debian.org"> Bastian Blank</a>. The Debian project
+would like to take the opportunity to thank Sun for the donation.</p>
+
+<p><strong>New Debian Archive Signing Key</strong> For the upcoming release
+of <a href="$(HOME)/releases/etch">Etch</a> there was a new GnuPG <a
+href="http://pgpkeys.pca.dfn.de/pks/lookup?search=0x6070D3A1&op=vindex">
+Signing-Key</a> created. Etch will be the first Debian release which
+supports the feature called "secure apt". With secure apt users are able
+to check the authenticity of Debian packages prior to installing
+it on their machines. A <a href="http://wiki.debian.org/SecureApt">
+wiki</a> page explains how to import the new Signing-Key and gives an
+overview on how secure apt is working.</p>
