+===== status and references slide
+
+git-debrebase is available in testing and stretch-backports and is in
+good shape.  Since early versions it has been battle-tested to help
+with security updates to the Debian Xen packages.  The documentation
+is comprehensive.
+
+No doubt the user interface and documentation will improve, and new
+features will will be added, but you can start using it right away.
+
+The best starting point is probably the tutorial manpage
+dgit-maint-debrebase (7) (which is in the dgit package).
+
+Sean and I are holding a workshop on Tuesday morning, where anyone is
+invited to come and get help with git-debrebase - and also with dgit.
+So if your questions dun't get answered before then, do drop in.
+
+And of course I should refer to the reference documentation.
+git-debrebase(5) has the data model and definition of terminology.
+git-debrebase(1) is the command line reference.
+
+But, really, start with the dgit-maint-rebase tutorial, or come to the
+workshop.
