So ? how does asking about the status hurt in any way ? We assuredly lose more
time infighting about this than it would take to implement this, and it is
very bad for motivation to get constantly bashed by Frans on this.
My own take on this is anyway that the kernel team should take over this, but
i understand the concerns of the d-i folk wanting to maintain the control over
which modules goes into which .udeb.

So, if Frans has no time to reply in a constructive manner, he should just
shut up and ignore the question.

I think it will be a good thing, and more constructive than waiting for
porters of each arch to come and make the .udeb upload, how long did the
2.6.12 migration take ? A couple of weeks ?

me.
