Dear Oded,

Not even back from parental leave, I am spending my spare time with 
upgrading our school's lab to Lenny (unreleased - ever to be released?).
To be more precise, I am looking for the best way to upgrade 3 years old 
workstations (running sarge-alpha-pre) in a way that can be kept for at 
least another 2 years.

Now, regarding your questions, my situation (an people like Nigel made 
similair requests) is to answer: yes and no! 

Let's try to release Lenny for Workstation + LTSP (etch on Tjener will 
be sufficient for quite a while). Some people might consider to be one 
release ahead using Debian Sid[ux] on workstations, anyway.

I've been feeling quite for a while now, that it could be a good idea to 
separate Services (esp. Tjener) from Desktop (esp. Workstations).

That's my two cent, saysing "Nes" or "Yo".

Regards
Ralf
