I have a copy of the script that looks at the du -S output and
at /proc/mounts and figures out the space required for each
partition. (We can look up the archives for details). I think it was
at the point of being proposed for policy, but we lost the policy
editor.
Another good reason to wait was to release Hamm; now that we
are close to that, mayeb we should look at the archives and create a
summary? If we have a concrete proposal, we can get the apt
developers to buy into it.

we really need a policy editor
