Will a live version of kfreebsd become available
Hello.
In looking at the web page for the Debian Live Project, at
http://www.debian.org/CD/live/
it appears that live images for kfreebsd for Debian 7, are not yet available.

GNOME is probably a mess in the 'current stable' release (squeeze) but
likely to be much better for wheezy. To be honest though, probably very
few people have tried/used it much, and neither have I.
XFCE is the default GNU/kFreeBSD desktop environment since a while ago,
and post-wheezy it is planned to become the default on GNU/Linux too.

I am wondering whether live versions of Debian 7 kfreebsd, with the
xfce desktop, will become available?
It could be a good way for people like me, to try kfreebsd, before
installing it.
>From what I understand, the Debian Live Project is separate to the
Debian Kfreebsd project, but I assume that, to get extra Debian Live
versions produced and made available, a proposal would need to come
from the particular project for which Live versions are not already
available, and therefore, in this case, such a proposal, would, I
assume, need to come from the Debian Kfreebsd Project.
If I am wrong in this, I stand to be corrected.
So, please advise whether a move exists, for Debian 7 kfreebsd with
the xfce desktop, to be made available in a live version, for people
to try.
Thank you in anticipation.
