Dear Prakhar, dear Steffen,

shame on me, I forgot to mention the data management. Part of the effort is
specific to Debian Med, and part of it is a more general discussion, see the
two following links:

http://wiki.debian.org/getData
http://wiki.debian.org/DataPackages

At first, I also did not mention clouds because Prakhar suggested that he is
interested to install Debian on terminals that need a low memory footprint. But
of course Debian images for cloud systems can also be interesting, for instance
by using them to set up centralised server, to which the running of the
heaviest tasks can be delegated. 

If you are intested, you can have a look at the following Google Summer of Code
projects:

Have a nice Sunday,
