+               <description>&lt;p&gt;Yesterday, I
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/First_prototype_ready_making_hardware_easier_to_use_in_Debian.html&quot;&gt;asked
+for testers&lt;/a&gt; for my prototype for making Debian better at handling
+pluggable hardware devices, which I
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Lets_make_hardware_dongles_easier_to_use_in_Debian.html&quot;&gt;set
+out to create&lt;/a&gt; earlier this month.  Several valuable testers showed
+up, and caused me to really want to to open up the development to more
+people.  But before I did this, I want to come up with a sensible name
+for this project.  Today I finally decided on a new name, and I have
+renamed the project from hw-support-handler to this new name.  In the
+process, I moved the source to git and made it available as a
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/isenkram.git&quot;&gt;collab-maint&lt;/a&gt;
+repository in Debian.  The new name?  It is &lt;strong&gt;Isenkram&lt;/strong&gt;.
+To fetch and build the latest version of the source, use&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;pre&gt;
+git clone http://anonscm.debian.org/git/collab-maint/isenkram.git
+cd isenkram &amp;&amp; git-buildpackage -us -uc
+&lt;/pre&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I have not yet adjusted all files to use the new name yet.  If you
+want to hack on the source or improve the package, please go ahead.
+But please talk to me first on IRC or via email before you do major
+changes, to make sure we do not step on each others toes. :)&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;If you wonder what &#39;isenkram&#39; is, it is a Norwegian word for iron
+stuff, typically meaning tools, nails, screws, etc.  Typical hardware
+stuff, in other words.  I&#39;ve been told it is the Norwegian variant of
+the German word eisenkram, for those that are familiar with that
+word.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Update 2013-01-26&lt;/strong&gt;: Added -us -us to build
+instructions, to avoid confusing people with an error from the signing
+process.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Update 2013-01-27&lt;/strong&gt;: Switch to HTTP URL for the git
+clone argument to avoid the need for authentication.&lt;/p&gt;
