My goal is to release before August.

I implemented what I believe is a fix, but will not be able to test it
with LTSP diskless workstations until tomorrow.

I am not quite sure we need the i386 DVD.
I published alpha3 with the amd64/i386 usbstick and amd64/i386 netinst
CD, and did not include the i386 binary DVD, to see if anyone was
missing it.
Can anyone let us know if they really need the i386 DVD and can not
get their work done using the netinst CD or the USB stick ISO?

I agree.

As I said earlier, as soon as the gosa fix was in, we should do a
beta1. And I believe we should make the betas from wheezy and not
wheezy-test.

Actually, I believe we can release beta1 even without the first
blocker fixed. :)
