Well, I think partman rocks.  Notably, a lot of people working on extra 
architectures and subarchitectures appear to be hoping that partman takes 
over, because it means that they just have to get libparted support for their 
architecture, rather than making udebs of various and sundry tools and 
supporting all their different interfaces in debconf.  I think that's reason 
enough to switch to it.  Furthermore, it's actually pretty spiffy.  :-)
