To solve this very problem we actually invented the tasks in Blends: It
simply helps picking the software users want on their system without
browsing the n (insert number of binary packages here) descriptions
using tools a newcomer is not even aware about.
I'm aware that the target user group I have in mind and who thanked me
for the easy way to install their packages is quite small amongst all
users of Debian. On the other hand Debian is quite popular in this
target user group compared to other distributions and this is because we
provide explicit care for this user group.
Kind regards
Andreas.
