  network config API (Container.network[index].key)

  was created, full rebuilds with clang and python3.3 (if available)   
  are planned
* awesome talks about ARM, multi-arch, clang, d-i & partman happened at 
  debconf have been attended by team members
* ubuntu arm server alternate was made to work ... (sadly the switch to 
  squashfs broke them again but we worked around this for A3)

  serialisation/deserialisation now 99% done and can now serialise and 
  deserialise dbus messages

  run the daemon was uploaded
* gnuplot scripts that run on lillypilly and create pkgstats
