+*****************
+Electrophysiology
+*****************
+
+The majority of the electrophysiology research community in neuroscience is
+`locked-in` the proprietary software solutions which accompanying data
+acquisition hardware.  That impairs their ability to adopt novel data analysis
+methodologies and experimental setups.  There already exist a variety of
+primarily Linux-based FOSS_ solutions in this domain.  But software
+development and dissemination is often impaired by the absence of the efforts
+centralization and existing problems with the support of the core components
+by the used operating systems.  Nevertheless, Debian_ and its derivatives
+already dominate as the operating systems of choice by such projects.
+
+We are planing to help addressing existing issues in the core necessary
+components provided by Debian_ to help upstream authors with streamlining
+their development.  Furthermore we are planing to package some popular
+deployment-ready |FOSS| solutions and make them an integral part of Debian_.
+
+Status
+------
+
+We have collected information on interesting and alive projects in this domain
+within neuroscience-electrophysiology_ task page.  To gather information on
+the needs of the researchers interested in this field we have researched
+researchers demands while helding a :ref:`Debian booth at SfN10 conference
+<chap_debian_booth_sfn2010>`.  To further elaborate the work plan, we have
+initiated discussions with upstream authors (private correspondence and on
+neurodebian-devel_, neurodebian-upstream_ mailing lists).

+***********************************
+NeuroDebian repository snapshotting
+***********************************
+
+The official Debian snapshotting service (http://snapshot.debian.org) allows
+obtaining any version of any software that was ever present in Debian, and
+provides a complete state of the Debian archive with all software versions
+corresponding to a specific date.  We are going to adopt this service to
+provide this functionality for the NeuroDebian repository itself, thus
+covering backports of our packages for all supported Debian and Ubuntu
+releases, as well as staging packages that have not been accepted into Debian,
+but may already be used by researchers.  Used in conjunction with the official
+Debian snapshotting repository, it would allow for the reconstruction of
+entire research environments or simply for installation of a particular
+previous version of a product of interest.
+
+
+.. _`Debian snapshotting service`: http://snapshot.debian.org/
+
+
+Status
+------
+
+We have adapted http://snapshot.debian.org implementation to snapshot
+NeuroDebian repository and snapshotting service was deployed on 2010-10-12.
+
+.. todo:: NeuroDebian snapshotting service
+
+   * Provide web-frontend to access existing snapshots within NeuroDebian
+     website.
