- completed upstream build system for all interesting file types, fixed lots of bugs
- version 2.2 with current feature set uploaded to sid and karmic

converted Apport and Jockey to DistUtilsExtra.auto, both as proof of concept, and to simplify their build system ("diffstat: 144 removals, 12 additions" )

hal deprecation: No progress this week

Other work done:
