If you do want to report separate issues, fine. But at least take the
trouble to look through existing bug reports first and to only submit
something that is _not yet_ in the BTS as bugs (including a proper
priority).
Also, as problems, requests and wishes that are send _only_ to the
maillist will probably be forgotten, your method is extremely
inefficient.
So do not send loose messages with whishes or problems to the list,
instead file proper bug reports on the correct packages to the BTS. The
BTS will help us keep track of what issues have been dealt with and what
have not.
If you have a question or need help, feel free to send a mail to the list.
If you identify a problem that's not yet in the BTS, feel free to submit
a bug report.
If you just want to just get your experiences with d-i off your chest,
FILE AN INSTALLATION REPORT. That's what it's there for.
We have become quite good at extracting the essentials from installation
reports and converting installation reports into proper bugs against the
proper packages.
I am not complaining about the fact that you are sending emails, but that
your sending emails is not contributing anything.
Cheers,
FJP
