Re: CD1 without a network mirror isn't sufficient to install a full desktop environment

Well, I know there *is* a Git commit to set it to xfce instead of gnome, but I don't know how authoritative or influential it will end up being.  I also like the idea of compressing/trimming GNOME.  Thanks for the feedback.

That hasn't happened at all, the tech media you have been reading and
believing neglected to check their facts:

pabs@chianamo ~/tasksel-3.13 $ grep -A3 tasksel/desktop debian/templates
Template: tasksel/desktop
Type: multiselect
Choices: gnome, kde, xfce, lxde
Default: gnome

Indeed, the release team have been pursuing compressing GNOME better
so it will fit.
