"This is the first official release of Debian GNU/Linux for the alpha
architecture. We feel that it has proven itself sufficiently to be
released. However, because it has not had the exposure (and hence
testing by users) that our i386 and m68k versions have had, you may
encounter a few bugs. Use our bug tracking system to report any
problems; make sure to mention the fact that the bug is on the alpha
platform."
Or maybe that's a bit verbose?
