|   OK, let's rephrase: I'm not impressed at all by the usage of
|   debconf in d-i, after a first try.

If you can tell what's wrong it would be a lot easier to explain the
train of thoughts or change what's broken.

|   rather than PGI which seems to more advanced than d-i on many
|   grounds. This is a question, not an attack.

I haven't had the time to play with PGI yet.  We will have to have a
discussion regarding what installation system we want for sarge: d-i
and/or PGI.  We'll also decide whether we will let boot-floppies
handle the corner cases which won't get covered by the first release
of d-i (or if we should spend the time to get d-i to cover them).

The time for that discussion hasn't come yet; We'll release woody
first, and then we can look forward and decide on a course of action.
