Formally? Nope.  You just got the announcement. :)

Hey, it supprised me this morning to find out it had changed.  But it was also
expected.  2.3 is dead, it's now 2.4.

Active devel for what?  The 2_5 tree (I'm sure if you search the -dev archives
there's a few pointers to it, bk://bk.fsmlabs.com:5005 is where the unstable
stuff happens, before moving to a stable tree.

Sure:
linuxppc_2_3 - "Dead", it still exists on the server, but it's going away.
linuxppc_2_4 - Where 2_3 used to be.  It doesn't compile at the moment, but it
will later today / tomorrow (I'm testing it right now).
linuxppc_2_5 - Same old unstable dev tree, still port 5005
