Hi Dann,
In terms of the debian-cd work, I'm expecting 2 parts:
* a normal point release (boring, routine, crank the handle and test
the resulting images install OK).
* a set of specialised CDs (1 each for i386/amd64/source, I guess)
that contain the extra etchnhalf bits. Frans has already played a
little with that part. I don't expect any big problems, but there
will probably be some by-hand frigging to make them look right.
The first part should take the usual couple of days to build and test,
*although* I'm going to be away and busy for a large chunk of next
weekend myself. Maybe Manty or somebody else could watch over the
build...?
The second part won't take very long at all to build, as we'll just be
making 3 CD images. But it may take a few attempts to get them right,
and I'm thinking that'll be me working on it, either late on Sunday
26th or Monday 27th.
How does that work for you?
