Assuming that the patch for #699742[0] fixes this issue with DI RC
releases being installed, is there still an outstanding issue for the
CTTE?

[I can understand a bit of wariness of having d-i built with a version
of syslinux that isn't being distributed in wheezy, but I think that
might need to be discussed and a technical solution fleshed out
elsewhere, and probably isn't ripe for a CTTE decision.]

I think they misspelled this. Shouldn't it be "Operation Just 'Cause"?
