[Ken Rice]

And YAY the repo has been fixed! We had a little SNAFU in the repo config
with the addition of jesse... Things are back to normal now... Have at it
guys

Last I heard there were concerns around some of the custom patches to
upstream libraries used in FreeSWITCH that was blocking getting packages
into the official repo?

The other issue is by getting into debian repositories, we're pretty much
obliged to backport security patches between debian releases.

There was no discussion of Debian accepting packages or not. So, yeah,
I would have missed that point.

They're making lots of progress in this area. Of course, any help is
welcomed.
