updates for backports (and Ubuntu numbers on installations)

  
  ||<style="text-align:center"> {{http://boinc.berkeley.edu/logo/www_logo.gif}} ||<style="background-color: #FFE0E0;"> BOINC comes as an official part of Debian and with it of Ubuntu, Mint and many others. Just install the DebianPts:boinc package. Then start the `boincmgr` application to join the project of your liking. <<BR>> <<BR>> The remainder of this page helps the maintainers of these packages to better organise themselves. It may serve the curiosity of the one or other casual visitor and possibly attracts more helping hands. Ignore it at first.||
  ||<style="text-align:center"> {{http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/images/seti_logo.png}} ||<style="background-color: #FFF0F0;"> BOINC, under your control, downloads and runs external applications. Debian supports many more platforms than any scientific group. And with Debian, you have the confidence to see a direct correspondence between the source Debian distributes and the application one runs. For SETI, we have hence prepared a package of their scientific application, i.e. install DebianPts:boinc-app-seti and the local application is used to search for signals from outer space.||

Also the boinc-app-seti package (currently in unstable) with all its frequent updates will come to Wheezy only as a backport. Debian and Ubuntu folks work together on those packages, which we are very happy about.||
