I don't know of any reason why it can't be LSB 3.0 (spec release this week).
It does require a newer glibc than sarge and some of the X tests might require
Xorg to pass, but those are both goals for etch right? I'll be running the 3.0
tests on etch soon.

I think we might even been 2.0 compliant in sarge, but we're still testing
that.

Ok, good idea, I'll bring the subject up on debian-lsb and maybe send a
pointer or summary to debian-devel for those not on debian-lsb.

OK.
How do you feel about multi-arch?

How do you feel about support for alternate (ie non-sysv) init systems?
