You might have heard about the Freenode IRC drama, and after more than 17 years of #grml on Freenode, it's time to say goodbye.

We decided to move our IRC to irc.oftc.net, so please join us at #grml over there.

Thanks for the many years of great service to Freenode, thanks OFTC for hosting us!

The Debian project hosts a Bug Squashing Party in Salzburg/Austria, taking place from April 5th to April 7th 2019. A Bug Squashing Party is a come-together of developers, contributors and enthusiasts who try to fix as many bugs as possible.

We’ve been invited to join the Bug Squashing Party and since Grml is an official derivative of Debian we’re more than happy to take this opportunity. This is the perfect time and place to meet with fellow Grml and Debian developers, contributors and friends, to make the next Debian- and Grml-Release the best ever! :)

The key facts:

• Location: conova communications GmbH, Karolingerstr. 36A, 5020 Salzburg, Austria
• Date: 2019-04-05 (Friday) until 2019-04-07 (Sunday)

If you want to join us please visit wiki.debian.org/BSP/2019/04/Salzburg for further information. If you’ve any questions feel free to reach out to us.

PS: For the ones of you who can’t join us in Salzburg, feel free to join us during the Bug Squashing Party on IRC (#grml on irc.freenode.org)!

A new stable release of Grml is long overdue and sadly we didn't manage to release a new stable release in 2016 either.

We don't want to promise anything we can't hold, but we should have (at least) an RC version available within Q1/2017.
