+Here's how to get ikiwiki. See [[setup]] for how to use it, and be sure to
+add your wiki to [[IkiwikiUsers]] if you use ikiwiki.
+
 ## tarball
 
-Currently the tarball for the 1.0 release is available for download from [here](http://kitenet.net/~joey/debian/unstable/ikiwiki_1.0.tar.gz).
+The best place to download a tarball of the latest release is from 
+<http://packages.debian.org/unstable/source/ikiwiki>.
+
+Installation steps and requirements are listed on the [[install]] page.
+
+## packages
+
+If using Debian (since 4.0), or Ubuntu (since 6.10):
+[[template id=note text="""
+Note that Debian 4.0 and especially Ubuntu 6.10 contain older versions of
+ikiwiki, there have been lots of enhancements and bug fixes since those
+versions.
+"""]]
+
+        apt-get install ikiwiki
+
+Or download the deb from <http://packages.debian.org/unstable/web/ikiwiki>.
+
+There is a backport of a recent version of ikiwiki for Debian 4.0 at
+<http://packages.debian.org/etch-backports/ikiwiki>.
+
+There is also an unofficial backport of ikiwiki for Debian 3.1, provided by
+Paweł Tęcza, at <http://gpa.net.icm.edu.pl/debian/>.
+
+Also. FreeBSD has ikiwiki in its
+[ports collection](http://www.freshports.org/www/ikiwiki/).
+
+## revision control
+
+### git
+
+Ikiwiki is developed in a git repository and can be checked out by
+either of these commands:
 
-## Debian package
+	git clone git://git.ikiwiki.info/
+	git clone http://git.ikiwiki.info/ikiwiki.git/
 
-While ikiwiki is being added to Debian, the deb can be downloaded from [here](http://kitenet.net/~joey/debian/unstable/ikiwiki_1.0_all.deb).
+The gitweb is [here](http://git.ikiwiki.info/?p=ikiwiki).
 
-While this deb has been developed on Debian unstable, it should also work on stable, although to get the CGI stuff working on stable, you will need to upgrade to a newer version of libcgi-formbuilder-perl, `3.02.02`.
+Commits to this git repository are fed into [CIA](http://cia.vc), and can
+be browsed, subscribed to etc on its
+[project page](http://cia.vc/stats/project/ikiwiki).
