+ <p>During this weekends
+<a href="http://www.nuug.no/news/Oslo__Takk_for_feilfiksingsfesten.shtml">bug
+squashing party and developer gathering</a>, we decided to do our part
+to make sure there are good books about Debian available in Norwegian
+Bokmål, and got in touch with the people behind the
+<a href="http://debian-handbook.info/">Debian Administrator's Handbook
+project</a> to get started. If you want to help out, please start
+contributing using
+<a href="https://hosted.weblate.org/translate/debian-handbook/">the
+hosted weblate project page</a>, and get in touch using
+<a href="http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-handbook-translators">the
+translators mailing list</a>. Please also check out
+<a href="https://debian-handbook.info/contribute/">the instructions for
+contributors</a>.</p>
+
+<p>The book is already available on paper in English, French and
+Japanese, and our goal is to get it available on paper in Norwegian
+Bokmål too. In addition to the paper edition, there are also EPUB and
+Mobi versions available. And there are incomplete translations
+available for many more languages.</p>

+ <p>Just for fun I had a look at the popcon number of ZFS related
+packages in Debian, and was quite surprised with what I found. I use
+ZFS myself at home, but did not really expect many others to do so.
+But I might be wrong.</p>
+
+<p>According to
+<a href="https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=spl-linux">the popcon
+results for spl-linux</a>, there are 1019 Debian installations, or
+0.53% of the population, with the package installed. As far as I know
+the only use of the spl-linux package is as a support library for ZFS
+on Linux, so I use it here as proxy for measuring the number of ZFS
+installation on Linux in Debian. In the kFreeBSD variant of Debian
+the ZFS feature is already available, and there
+<a href="https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=zfsutils">the popcon
+results for zfsutils</a> show 1625 Debian installations or 0.84% of
+the population. So I guess I am not alone in using ZFS on Debian.</p>
+
+<p>But even though the Debian project leader Lucas Nussbaum
+<a href="https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2015/04/msg00006.html">announced
+in April 2015</a> that the legal obstacles blocking ZFS on Debian were
+cleared, the package is still not in Debian. The package is again in
+the NEW queue. Several uploads have been rejected so far because the
+debian/copyright file was incomplete or wrong, but there is no reason
+to give up. The current status can be seen on
+<a href="https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=pkg-zfsonlinux-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org">the
+team status page</a>, and
+<a href="http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-zfsonlinux/zfs.git">the
+source code</a> is available on Alioth.</p>
+
+<p>As I want ZFS to be included in next version of Debian to make sure
+my home server can function in the future using only official Debian
+packages, and the current blocker is to get the debian/copyright file
+accepted by the FTP masters in Debian, I decided a while back to try
+to help out the team. This was the background for my blog post about
+<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Creating__updating_and_checking_debian_copyright_semi_automatically.html">creating,
+updating and checking debian/copyright semi-automatically</a>, and I
+used the techniques I explored there to try to find any errors in the
+copyright file. It is not very easy to check every one of the around
+2000 files in the source package, but I hope we this time got it
+right. If you want to help out, check out the git source and try to
+find missing entries in the debian/copyright file.</p>
