In the DOG home page (http://pkg-octave.alioth.debian.org), for each
maintained package there are now links to its home page at packages.d.o, to
the BTS, to the buildd logs, and to the unstable->testing transition status.
I hope these links will make our work easier.

BTW, there are may tasks to be completed, among them:

    * Porting the other packages than octave-forge to the DOG Guidelines.

    * Investigate the buildd failures and, eventually, do manual builds on
      the project machines for the failing architectures.  

    * Package new Octave stuff (see the home page for a list of interesting
      Octave-related projects).

I hope that the DOG crew members will start to undertake some of the tasks
above.  In particular, the non-DD's are encourage to volunteer, since this
is a great opportunity to learn about Debian packaging.
