My concern is thus that apart from the CD images, tasks are either very small, or quite difficult. One thing that could be added would be to manage to have our own "testing" distribution, independent from the official testing distribution. That would help installability a lot. Of course, I'm not opposed at all to proposing the idea and even mentoring, I'm just unsure it can fit. Samuel
