Personal Package Archives out of Beta

From the Ubuntu developers list:

Personal Package Archives are now out of beta and available to all Launchpad users and teams. Find out more in our quick-start guide at https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart

This is great news. I love it when a service/software comes out of beta, it leaves me with a greater sense of confidence. I've been using my Launchpad PPA for a couple of months now and it's been a real help by introducing me to the process of uploading packages to a remote repository. I recommend PPAs to anyone wanting to experiment with packaging for Ubuntu. There's a PPA introduction class at 15.00 UTC on Wednesday 28th November in #ubuntu-classroom.
