more than 50000 binary packages in sid main amd64

So in the last weeks every morning I looked at this graph and yesterday for the first time I finally saw it exceed 50k binary packages:

The graph shows the piuparts results for the unstable/sid suite since 2009.

In not really related news, in our reproducible builds test setup 87% of the source packages in testing/stretch build on amd64 were reproducible today, which is the highest percentage we've seen so far. Because of some more build failures and due to some more variations added, testing/stretch on armhf is a bit behind and "only" reached a very good 83.6% so far.

One of the next statistic quesions is, whether we'll reach 24k source packages in unstable first, or 23k source packages in testing And hopefully we'll reach 20k reproducible packages (in our current test framework) on testing/amd64 before that (We already reachred 20k reproducible packages on unstable/amd64.)

And this is all because of you awesome people! I'm very thankful we enable each other to grow like we do and I look forward to go further!
