I guess you mean s/upload/stable update request/ - flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound currently is in etch-test only. I wonder two things: Is flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound automatically installed as default atm? Will flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound automatically be installed on upgrades? I guess the answer to both questions is "no", so I don't consider moving it to etch to be too risky. And not only if the answer to the first question is "yes", I wonder if flashplugin-nonfree is installable automatically at all atm and if thats done in the default install. And last but not least, it should be clear, that we off-grounds in respect to Debian policy about this - "packages in main must not recommend or depend on stuff outside main". This means we disqualify ourself from being a CDD. OTOH we create a new type of CDD: nonfree-CDD ;-) IMO installing flash-nonfree should be an installation option and default to "no". But I guess it's too late for this for etch and hope it's not needed for lenny... > What about testing this in Narvik next weekend ?

That is good and sometimes bad. [I'm not going into what I'm thinking about here. You probably guess what I mean anyway.] Said that, I think we only should announce this as working when sound works in kde, flash, java, whatelse?, on thin-clients and on (diskless) workstations - and remark _if_ it doesnt work in some configuration. I also think we agree on this :-) http://wiki.skolelinux.no/DebianEdu/Documentation/Etch/Features regards, Holger
