Could you please expand on "the updated Ubuntu/Debian client bits"? What is the changed functionality and any idea how those are getting distributed? Are they getting rolled into upstream and we can expect packages on existing distributions, or are we going to need to pull packages from a PPA and distribute them through a custom channel?
