Even if there is something basic in two mounths, I think there should be
some full-featured new boot system before the freeze or the old
boot-floppies should be taken.
Useing the freeze-time for bug-fixing is almost too much in my eyes, using
it for growing the system from something basic to useable is against all
stability considerations, that have such an nice history in debian.
