Are backports available for breezy?

I see them available on the mirror-max repo, but I'm not having any getting it to work.

taken from a recent post : backports are packages from the development branch which get repackaged for the stable branch. as breezy is still in development, there are no backports for it.

Mirrormax merely has a base 'tree' for breezy-backports-staging -- it hasn't been populated with any Packages.gz or packages yet.

Breezy Backports will be available on archive.ubuntu.com like official Hoary backports. Unofficial breezy-backports on mirrormax will not exist any longer, but breezy-backports-staging will, since Ubuntu provides us with no other beta testing mechanism.


Breezy Backports will open as soon as DD's devel repos open.
whatever
