honestly, i'm not sure how/if i can summarize it in public, it was a
private discussion between me, ftp-master, and eventually dam and dpl.

i've taken out the standalone preseeding backend stuff from
src:live-config into src:live-debconfig.

ok, let's close it then (or rather, reassign to ftp-masters.. so they
can reject live-debconfig 3 from NEW, and i'll re-upload it as version
4 for jessie, that they then can process without problems anytime soon.

for container configuration; the generic name for this was rejected by
ftp-master, bottom line is they think it's live-* stuff (eventhough it
is not), so it needed to use a package name out of the debian-live
namespace.

> Please elaborate. What timeframe are you assuming?

we'll be having alpha1 out in a couple of days, so we have a baseline
of what still needs work. i expect one week (plus one week for safety)
until live-{build,boot,config,tools} is good enough for wheezy, and
after that, another week (plus one week for safety) for live-installer
and debian-installer-launcher. that would be somewhen arround end of
august. for live-manual i don't know about Bens plans, but should be
somewhat similar i think.

i'm not aware to not have answered (or even ignored) any mails send to
this bug report, did i?

i appreciate if you formulate questions in a direct, unambiguous and
an easy understandable way, yes.

> I should not assume malice, I guess.

i prefer if you don't.
