+NeuroDebian provides a large collection of popular neuroscience research
+software for the Debian_ operating system as well as Ubuntu_ and other
+derivatives. Popular packages include :ref:`AFNI <binary_pkg_afni>`,
+:ref:`FSL <binary_pkg_fsl-complete>`, :ref:`PyMVPA <binary_pkg_python-mvpa2>` and
+:ref:`many others <pkg_tocs>`. While we do strive to maintain a high level of
+quality, we make no guarantee that a given package works as expected, so use
+them at your own risk. If you do encounter problems or you just like to say
+thanks, simply :ref:`send us an email <chap_contacts>`.
-NeuroDebian provides a turnkey software platform for neuroscience
-that is created by integrating research tools with the Debian_ operating
-system. If you are using such software on Debian_ or its derivatives,
-such as Ubuntu_, chances are that you are already using NeuroDebian.
-
-This website provides a :ref:`supplementary repository <repository_howto>` with
-both unofficial or prospective packages which are not (yet) available from the
-main Debian_ archive, as well as backported or simply rebuilt latest versions
-of software. NeuroDebian serves as an "upstream" to some :ref:`derivative
-<chap_derivatives>` projects. Please see the :ref:`faq` for more information
-about the goals of this project, and :ref:`read what people say about it
-<testimonials>`. Take a look at the :ref:`list of our current and planned
-projects <projects>` if you want to get involved. This service is provided "as
-is". There is no guarantee that a package works as expected, so use them at
-your own risk. If you encounter problems, please `report <#contacts>`_ them.
-Please help us |spread|:
+Learn more about NeuroDebian, the goals of this project, and help us |spread|!

-
-
-
-How to use this repository
-==========================
-
-To enable the NeuroDebian repository on your system, select your Debian or
-Ubuntu release and a `repository mirror`_ from the lists below. Upon selection
-a short command snippet will be displayed that can be copied and pasted into
-a terminal session. These commands will configure the system package manager
-with the NeuroDebian repository key and package source information.
-
-.. include:: sources_lists
-
-Once this is done, you have to update the package index and you are ready to
-install packages. Use your favorite package manager, e.g. synaptic, adept. In
-the terminal you can use :command:`apt-get`::
-
- sudo apt-get update
- sudo apt-get install mricron
-
-.. note::
-
- Not every package is available for all distributions/releases. For information
- about which package version is available for which release and architecture,
- please have a look at the corresponding package pages.

-
-Popularity Contest
-------------------
-
-We encourage you to participate in the `popularity
-contest <http://popcon.debian.org>`_ (popcon), which anonymously
-collects the list of packages you installed/use on your system.
-Collecting such statistics is of particular importance for research
-software projects as a prove of an existing user-base. If upon
-installation of the system you rejected the invitation to participate
-you can always change your decision by running::
-
- sudo dpkg-reconfigure popularity-contest
-
-.. note::
-
- If you are deploying multiple systems through cloning, to not have
- all systems considered as one, it would be necessary to re-generate
- the random MY_HOSTID. Following commands ran as root should do it
- (as root) without any interactive dialog::
-
- sed -i -e 's,PARTICIPATE *= *.no.,PARTICIPATE="yes",g' -e '/^ *MY_HOSTID/d' /etc/popularity-contest.conf
- DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive dpkg-reconfigure popularity-contest
-
-In addition to popcon pages for your "core" distribution (e.g. `Debian
-<http://popcon.debian.org/>`__ or `Ubuntu
-<http://popcon.ubuntu.com/>`__) you can see/get statistics for
-submissions to `NeuroDebian <http://neuro.debian.net/popcon/>`__ and
-know that you are already contributing back to the community.

-Ways to use NeuroDebian
-=======================
-
-Virtual machine
----------------
-
-If you are not running Debian_ on a particular machine a :ref:`chap_vm` is
-provided as a convenient testing and evaluation environment. After a few
-simple steps to setup the virtual machine, you will be able to use NeuroDebian_
-as an integral part of your existing working environment without any sacrifice.
-The virtual machine is also a suitable environment to temporarily deploy
-neuroscience software on machines running other operating systems, e.g. for the
-purpose of teaching a neuroimaging data analysis course in a multipurpose
-computer lab.

--------------------
+.. _news:
-Having been exposed to the wonders of NeuroDebian_ you are no longer
-satisfied with your previous choice of operating system? We would
-recommend installing Debian_ to replace or complement (dual-boot) your
-existing OS. Please visit `"Getting Debian"
-<http://www.debian.org/distrib/>`_ to obtain the images for your
-hardware architecture and then simply add |repos|.

-`Michael Hanke <http://mih.voxindeserto.de>`_ and `Yaroslav Halchenko
-<http://www.onerussian.com>`_ originally started NeuroDebian (formerly the
-`Experimental Psychology Debian packaging project
-<http://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-exppsy>`_) and are the current project
-leaders. However, the whole project would not be possible without the work of
-over 3,000 Debian_ developers and contributors who are as enthusiastically
-building the Debian operating system.
-A number of packages that are available from the NeuroDebian repository have
-been contributed by various individuals and other teams in Debian, such as
-`Debian Med`_ and `Debian Science`_. We want to express our gratitude to all
-maintainers_ that help to make Debian_ the ultimate software platform for
-neuroscience.
