Dear all, 

ok the tools-ng build is working nicely ;)
in 4 days, I have build on a single Desktop slow P4 (>3years old) about
   cran  ~800 / 1173
   omegahat  ~17 / 45
   bioc-2.0  ~800 / 1362
(read: repository debfile / number of source)

I stopped the build, just because, I wanted to correct few recurrent
errors seen in some recurrent package.

on of the recurrent lintian errors is :
N: Processing binary package r-cran-aami (version 1.0.1-0.r2d.1) ...
W: r-cran-aami: binary-nmu-uses-old-version-style 1.0.1-0.r2d.1
N:
N:   The version number of a binary NMU should be formed by appending
'+b'
N:   and a digit to the source version. This version scheme is
N:   special-cased by the archive software. The -x.x.x version number
style
N:   is considered obsolete.
N:   
N:   Refer to Developers Reference, section 5.10.2.1 for details.

The source version is Version: 1.0-1

* I reread the manuals, but I am not sure about how to solve it, 
* I know that we discuss the point few month ago.
Which will be the right version number ? 1.0.1-0 ? 


But somehow, the build as a proof of concept is working. Building severals
repository with cross dependencies in one loop automatically is doable.

Still more optimization are need.
I updated the TODO list. I tried to make it more clear in the hope that
someone (from the mailing-list or not) will took a bullet and solve
it...
