we don't need real developing in b-f. B-f should only a fall back for
sarge, if d-i is not ready.
Please don't add new features like LVM etc. to b-f. Maybe fix some bugs
(like the language chooser). The Hurt and BSD people should work with
d-i and make improvments on this development (and not on b-f).
Use it only as fall back.

maybe, but it work and you get a debian system running. Without hardware
detection, without real language support, without LVM, without GUI, ...
but it work.
You get debian and it is easy.
