Shouldn't that be Jay Freeman successfully ports Debian to the G1?

Anyway, this is cool. Debian was the distro that I learned Linux on. I look forward to seeing the progress on this.

Technically, this isn't actually a port at all: Debian already supported ARM EABI Linux (aka, Android's kernel) and has for almost two years now. I am just putting thought into the mechanisms of installing it on a G1 and making it work in harmony with Android.
