Am I to understand that the PPAs will not be offering built packages until Dharma is released?

Is there a specific Dharma PPA that we can use to test official builds or will that be back in SVN or the main PPA?
Just asking -- I'm keen to do some testing.

No, PPA is being rebuilt. Please wait for the rebuilding to be finished.
does anyone have the debs for 9.11 amd64? I've given up on trying to compile it from source... it seems to finish but no executables can be found anywhere. I'll stick to PPA's they're much easier granted I could wrangle some more performance out of my dual core atom chips with a custom compile, but the hassle is just not worth the benefit. I really hope these PPA's come back up soon.

"it seems to finish but no executables can be found anywhere", then it did not finish
If you want help compiling, please start a new thread and include "./bootstrap" , "./configure", "make", "sudo make install" output. Use a pastebin site for posting these things.
The repository is back
svn ppa is up and running again
don't get excited too early
jaunty i386 failed to build and hardy x64 is not published yet
but yeah, karmic and lucid look excellent!
add.: I can confirm, installation of SVN32789 worked flawless on my 64bit lucid installation
Dose not work for me!

You've got the wrong ppa
change team-xbmc in team-xbmc-svn and it should work

/Edit
I was too slow.
leighdog has got a point there: the *stable* ppa is still busy building
https://launchpad.net/~team-xbmc/+archive/ppa
of course you really should learn the diference between stable and SVN ppa *and* also do some reading about the right usage of adding repos
you want SVN? then use
ppa:team-xbmc-svn/ppa [as of time of writing, everything is built and fine]
you want stable? then use
ppa:team-xbmc/ppa [as of time of writing, still building but should be fine by tomorrow]
and it would be great if users that are not able to upgrade from ppa at the moment would finally have a look at the ppa pages before posting, that's what they're there for!!!
stable:
https://launchpad.net/~team-xbmc/+archive/ppa
SVN:
https://launchpad.net/~team-xbmc-svn/+archive/ppa
when in doubt, use the link "view package details" on the ppa pages!
you are a life saver now my two year old will stop with the watch a show? watch a show?

btw I actually have an xtreamer media streamer in case of emergencies like these...

still learning
