Hi guys, it's time to release. (Scary sayings 101 ;) So, the CD folks are starting to get automated CD images of testing going (http://gluck.debian.org/debian-cd/testing/isos/i386/sarge-i386-[1-8].iso) and they're wanting to make them bootable. Hence, it's time to give you lot a spot in the sun. If you remember Tollef's post from late August, you might remember seeing: ] Our RM wanted a limited, but working installer in approximately 14 ] days. I hope to meet that goal. It's been a bit more than 14 days since then, so hopefully y'all can meet this much more limited goal: * 1.44 / 2.88 disk images, based on current d-i in unstable, that boots on some common i386 hardware, shows a user interface, and allows you to download new udebs. "Working" isn't necessary, we just want to be able to stick a CD in, and have d-i come up, not necessarily being able to do Debian installs reliably. We've been putting off generating and uploading images a little too long. So, I think y'all are far enough along that you can probably come up with something like this by the end of the week without any major problems. Remember: it's alpha, it doesn't have to be good, and it doesn't have to be automated or repeatable. Yet, anyway :) Once you have, dump them in ~<whoever>/public_html/ on auric, and we can start thinking about where we're going next.
