<IMHO>
- yacs is a fine name you should keep it.
- debian-cd already exists in cvs.
- potato is not frozen, and has no useable boot disks, so it
would be hard to test the images that yacs creates.
- yacs depends on 'as yet not available code', (apt)
it would make it kinda hard to package .. eh?

I actually have not made a run with yacs as my ftp machine is still
on slink. I will upgrade soon and try to give you better feedback.
I did get the apt from cvs to compile...thanks for the help!
