I don't want to throw oil into the fire, but I think Debian is already
seriously considered beyond hobbyists even without sw raid.
Especially since every "serious" person/company I know, prefers
hardware raid (which of course Debian supports) to software, and the
pros of hw raid are so often told that I'm not going to mention here.
Even cheap IDE hw raid is better/faster/more reliable than sw raid.
Still, it would be nice if it would be included in Debian
*installer*. Debian as a whole of course supports sw raid and has
done so for a very long time.
Just my 2c.
