or we could just do nothing but reviewing the following tasksel change by Joey Hess [1], since apparently we have well-defined procedures for that: | commit 2a962cc65cdba010177f27e8824ba10d9a799a08 | Author: Joey Hess <j...@kitenet.net> | Date: Sat Jul 28 12:21:22 2012 -0400 | | switch default desktop task to xfce | | This ensures that the desktop will fit on CD#1, which gnome currently does not. | | There may be other reasons to prefer xfce as the default as well, but that | is a complex and subjective topic. Unfortunatly, Debian does not have a | well-defined procedure for making such choices, though it certianly has | well-defined procedures for reviewing them. So, I've decided to be bold, | and continue the tradition of making an arbitrary desktop selection for | Debian in tasksel. 1. http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=tasksel/tasksel.git;a=commit;h=2a962cc65cdba010177f27e8824ba10d9a799a08 Mraw, KiBi.
