------------------------------
+-----------------------
 
 Debian:
-- The data for reproducible-tracker.json (which is feed to tracker.d.o and DDPO) has been changed to contain data from testing (Stretch) as the build path variations we introduced for unstable are not yet ready for wider consumption. (Eg we recommend to make Stretch create (more) reproducible packages by rebuilding in the same path. (h01ger)
-- Various reproducibility statistics in the [dashbard view](https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/reproducible.html) have had numbers for testing (Stretch) added. (h01ger)
-- The [repository comparison page](https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/index_repositories.html) has been improved to only show obsolete packages if they exist, which they currently don't as we have rebuild everything from plain Debian repos except for our modified 'dpkg' due to [[!bug 138409]] and [[!bug 787980]. (h01ger)
-- All armhf boards are now using linux kernels provided by Debian.
