+When does a package migrate from NeuroDebian into Debian proper?
+----------------------------------------------------------------
+
+  In short: When it is ready. The longer answer is that there is nothing
+  special to packages in NeuroDebian in comparison to packages conducted
+  elsewhere.  Packaging efforts are announced to Debian via ITPs_ and the
+  packaging itself is available in some version control system -- typically in
+  the Git repositories of the `pkg-exppsy group on Debian's Alioth server`_, or
+  another VCS, or on http://mentors.debian.net.
+
+  The only difference is that a particular package becomes available through the
+  NeuroDebian repository before it has passed all checks for compliance with
+  Debian's standards. But even after a package becomes part of Debian the
+  NeuroDebian repository continues to provide binary packages of new versions
+  for a certain set of Debian and Ubuntu releases (aka backports).
