And I also think that "additional positive action" [...] Hello, I think that is terrible idea, because it makes us release a system that is lot less tested than it should be. If only fresh installs were using our default init system this part would only get very limited testing pre-freeze. The number of systems running testing or even unstable is going to be a lot higher than the number of people doing fresh installs from a d-i alpha or beta version. cu Andreas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin.
