"Matt Zimmerman, Ubuntu and Debian developer (among many other
things), has blogged that their first goal has been reached.
"Zimmerman reports that 275 old Ubuntu patches have been clear
out of the way. Many of these were obsolete patches clogging the
works. He says, "we couldn't tell which ones had been merged into
Debian, which were waiting in the BTS, and which had yet to be
submitted to Debian. All of them were several years old." After
clearing the majority rather easily (relatively speaking), there
were a few whose status was a bit harder to determine. With
dedication, Zimmerman and team have eliminated all but two, which
are dependent upon the determination of individual upstream
projects."
