Part way through Debian CD release process - always fun to do - Debian 10.7 in process

 As is normal for these days: I post a quick update on how we're doing.

Working through the test suite: RattusRattus, Sledge, Isy, Schweer and I. We've been joined by somebody new - jlsantos - who has done his first test for us :)

A couple of changes: there's now a different automatic partitioning layout. /boot has been resized to ~500MB - to allow for more than one kernel but also the other initramfs files. The filesystem size allocated for a swap partition is now 1GB by default.

We're doing fairly well - one hardware failure on an old laptop replaced by a newer model from Sledge's stock - everybody cheerful and all working well.

Separately, there was a quiet release of Bullseye Alpha3 last night - that has had minimal testing - as ever, we're not yet near the release of Bullseye yet.
