[Pkg-bitcoin-devel] backports enabled by default in jessie

[Joseph Bisch]

I thought you had to block packages from migrating to testing in order
to prevent them from ending up in stable. And since backports are
based mostly on testing, the block also prevents those packages from
being in backports. Has anything changed with respect to that? I will
follow the discussion.

I wouldn't mind if someone helped out with Armory. I plan on being
able to keep it up-to-date, but I never know with school or if I get a
job. Maybe I'll mention on bitcointalk that I could use a
co-maintainer. It might be a good idea for pkg-bitcoin-devel as a
whole to advertise there.

The pure blend idea is a good one. And I think it is something that is
desperately needed. I was thinking about doing something like it
myself, but I couldn't get past the issue of people needing to trust
me. I'd be willing to help out with the pure blend if other people
wanted to do it.

Cheers,
Joseph
