Sure. ... but still, the question of how do we get in the (more visible!) list of images formally-tested-by-the-Azure-team is a valid one. Don't forget that at present Debian is, among other things, the most popular OS for GNU/Linux-based Web service deployment. We definitely want to be visible on public clouds that will be used more and more in the future for that kind of deployments in the future. As long as we can prepare 100% free VMs, and do so in accordance with Debian principles, I see no reason why we shouldn't aim at being first class citizens in any public cloud setting out there. Hope this clarifies the goal. Regarding how to get there, let's wait for Wheezy release, as discussed with Pierre, and then we'll see.
