Has there been a decision on what installer woody will use ?
I think we might end up draging the chain if woody does freese soon.
There is talk of recycling boot-floppies for woody, as far as i know its
no firm decision has been made though.
The default kernel that is to be installed for woody may be an important
factor in making this decision.
Maybe we should consider boot-floppies to be feature frozen and maintain
them for a release or two untill the new the new debian-installer makes
it unwanted.
If i remember correctly there are a couple of issues that would need to
be sorted out to use b-f for woody, cant remember what they are offhand
though
