+ <div class="body"><p>In April we
+<a href="Lets_make_a_Norwegian_Bokm_l_edition_of_The_Debian_Administrator_s_Handbook">started
+to work</a> on a Norwegian Bokmål edition of the "open access" book on
+how to set up and administrate a Debian system. Today I am happy to
+report that the first draft is now publicly available. You can find
+it on <a href="https://debian-handbook.info/get/">get the Debian
+Administrator's Handbook page</a> (under Other languages). The first
+eight chapters have a first draft translation, and we are working on
+proofreading the content. If you want to help out, please start
+contributing using
+<a href="https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/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>. A good way to contribute is to proofread the text
+and update weblate if you find errors.</p>
+
+<p>Our goal is still to make the Norwegian book available in paper as well as
+electronic form.</p>

- <div class="body"><p><a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/isenkram">The isenkram
-system</a> is a user-focused solution in Debian for handling hardware
-related packages. The idea is to have a database of mappings between
-hardware and packages, and pop up a dialog suggesting for the user to
-install the packages to use a given hardware dongle. Some use cases
-are when you insert a Yubikey, it proposes to install the software
-needed to control it; when you insert a braille reader list it
-proposes to install the packages needed to send text to the reader;
-and when you insert a ColorHug screen calibrator it suggests to
-install the driver for it. The system work well, and even have a few
-command line tools to install firmware packages and packages for the
-hardware already in the machine (as opposed to hotpluggable hardware).</p>
-
-<p>The system was initially written using aptdaemon, because I found
-good documentation and example code on how to use it. But aptdaemon
-is going away and is generally being replaced by
-<a href="http://www.freedesktop.org/software/PackageKit/">PackageKit</a>,
-so Isenkram needed a rewrite. And today, thanks to the great patch
-from my college Sunil Mohan Adapa in the FreedomBox project, the
-rewrite finally took place. I've just uploaded a new version of
-Isenkram into Debian Unstable with the patch included, and the default
-for the background daemon is now to use PackageKit. To check it out,
-install the <tt>isenkram</tt> package and insert some hardware dongle
-and see if it is recognised.</p>
-
-<p>If you want to know what kind of packages isenkram would propose for
-the machine it is running on, you can check out the isenkram-lookup
-program. This is what it look like on a Thinkpad X230:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote><pre>
-% isenkram-lookup
-bluez
-cheese
-fprintd
-fprintd-demo
-gkrellm-thinkbat
-hdapsd
-libpam-fprintd
-pidgin-blinklight
-thinkfan
-tleds
-tp-smapi-dkms
-tp-smapi-source
-tpb
-%p
-</pre></blockquote></p>
-
-<p>The hardware mappings come from several places. The preferred way
-is for packages to announce their hardware support using
-<a href="https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/">the
-cross distribution appstream system</a>.
-See
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/tags/isenkram/">previous
-blog posts about isenkram</a> to learn how to do that.</p>
