+      <div class="body">
+        <p>After several months of working and waiting, I am happy to report
+that the nice and user friendly 3D printer slicer software Cura just
+entered Debian Unstable.  It consist of five packages,
+<a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/cura">cura</a>,
+<a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/cura-engine">cura-engine</a>,
+<a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/libarcus">libarcus</a>,
+<a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/fdm-materials">fdm-materials</a>,
+<a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/libsavitar">libsavitar</a> and
+<a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/uranium">uranium</a>.  The last
+two, uranium and cura, entered Unstable yesterday.  This should make
+it easier for Debian users to print on at least the Ultimaker class of
+3D printers.  My closest 3D printer is an Ultimaker 2+, so it will
+make life easier for at least me. :)</p>
+
+<p>The work to make this happen was done by Gregor Riepl, and I was
+happy to assist him in sponsoring the packages.  With the introduction
+of Cura, Debian is up to three 3D printer slicers at your service,
+Cura, Slic3r and Slic3r Prusa.  If you own or have access to a 3D
+printer, give it a go. :)</p>
+
+<p>The 3D printer software is maintained by the 3D printer Debian
+team, flocking together on the
+<a href="http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/3dprinter-general">3dprinter-general</a>
+mailing list and the
+<a href="irc://irc.debian.org/#debian-3dprinting">#debian-3dprinting</a>
+IRC channel.</p>
+
+<p>The next step for Cura in Debian is to update the cura package to
+version 3.0.3 and then update the entire set of packages to version
+3.1.0 which showed up the last few days.</p>
