    We hope that you are enjoying this format of the DPN.

    This issue is brought to you from DebConf17 in Montreal by the now
    extended group of Debian Project News editors. So we expect DPN will see
    more frequent releases in the future.

    For other news, please read the official Debian blog Bits from
    Debian [1], and follow https://micronews.debian.org which RSS-feeds <the @debian> profile in several social networks too.

    Internal News/Happenings
    ------------------------

    New DPL

    In April, Chris Lamb was elected [4] as the new Debian Project Leader.

    Stretch released

    In June, we welcomed the release of Debian 9 [9] (codename "stretch").
    If you haven't upgraded your systems yet, you might like to do so soon
    to enjoy the improvements in the new release. Security support for the
    old Debian 8 release is expected to be available until around June
    2018 [10].

    9: https://www.debian.org/News/2017/20170722
    10: https://www.debian.org/security/faq#lifespan

    A group of CD set images have been dropped in this release, in favor of
    the DVD sets and netinst ISOs. With Stretch, several images for usage in different cloud providers are available too.

    DebConf17 in Montreal, videos online

    DebConf17, the annual Debian conference, has just been held in Montreal.
    We have been enjoying many interesting talks and productive discussions.
    Videos of many talks are already available by visiting the talks'
    individual pages linked from the schedule [11]. Read the article in the
    Debian blog [12] about DebConf17 for more details (including the group
    photo!).

    12: https://bits.debian.org/2017/08/debconf17-closes.html

    DebCamp

    Before the main conference started, some Debian teams gathered for the
    DebCamp week of work sessions and discussions. The Debian Perl Group
    held a Rolling Sprint at DebCamp, and the teams for OpenStack, pkg-
    emacsen and Debian Policy also held meetings and sprints. DebCamp17 may
    have been the biggest DebCamp ever, with 117 attendees.

    Chinese translation of the Debian website

    The Chinese language team has been relaunched with new contributors, and
    the Debian Installer, many pages in the Debian website, and other
    documents are being updated and translated into Chinese. If you want to
    join this effort, ask in the Chinese language team mailing list [13] for details.

    Alioth replacement sprint

    Debian's development platform "alioth" is due for a major restructuring
    since the underlying software will no longer be supported in the future.
    A sprint [37] to replace alioth will take place in Hamburg, Germany,
    from 18 to 20 August 2017.

    37: https://wiki.debian.org/Sprints/2017/Alioth

    Event Reports

    The Debian Groupware team recently sent a report [38] about their
    meeting held in April 2017. The Debian Policy team also reported [39]
    about their work in the last months. You can also read the recently sent
    Status update from the Reproducible Builds project [40].

    Newcomer bugs

    Debian has a "newcomer" bug tag, used to indicate bugs which are
    suitable for new contributors to use as an entry point to working on
    specific packages. There are 204 [63] bugs available tagged "newcomer".

    More than just code
    -------------------

    Contributors

    1635 people and 20 teams are listed on the Debian Contributors [64] page

    Discussions

    In July 2017, Debian user Rainer Dorsch asked, "what is going on
    here" [65], when he was trying to perform comparisons (less than/greater
    than) in the shell. Darac Marjal explained [66] what was going on, and
    Tomás elaborated [67] on that.

    Tips and Tricks

    Jose M. Calhariz has published a series of blogposts about
    crossgrading [68], starting with small tasks and evolving to a real-life example: Crossgrading the kernel in Debian 9 [69], Crossgrading a
    minimal install of Debian 9 [70], Crossgrading a more typical server in
    Debian 9 [71], Crossgrading a complex Desktop and Debian Developer
    Machine running Debian 9 [72], and Crossgrading a complex Desktop and
