We now reached the point, where all this can be seen/tested in the wild aka
via daily built images.
Please note, that the last relevant change did not reach testing yet, so you
will have to install sid from a trixie daily build image, to test this.
Holger, thank you so much for your efforts! This will resolve a really long-standing issue (which I also tried to resolve but did not succeed). 


So, the infrastructure is ready now, and I want to ask blend people for a
list of blends, that you want to be included in this mechanism.
I already came across the list in
<https://salsa.debian.org/blends-team/blends/-/blob/master/doc/en/04_existing_blends.xml?ref_type=heads>
Maybe that list could serve as template?
Please provide a list at your choice.


Since not everybody is reading the Blends list I've added the relevant
mailing lists in CC.  I personally confirm for

    Debian Med     and
    Debian Science


Also, if you would like to adapt the wording of the dialog, feel free to
tell me.


Please spell Blend in
   "Choose a Debian _b_lend for installation
with upper case _B_ (its a noun).
In the Blends selection I would start the actual selection (third image) with the 
real Blend name like (and alphabetic ordering) and the "official" short description
(which each Blend in CC should answer)

    Debian Astro
For Debian Astro, I can confirm to use the wording from the Blends metadata list: 

Debian Astro (professional and hobby astronomers)

Cheers

Ole
