I was under the impression that the reason for Mobian is to be a place
that can have packages that aren't suitable for Debian; like they are
too hacky, or they are Linux kernel forks for specific hardware or
similar. Also a place for disk images until the Mobian folks work out
a way to do them officially in a similar way to Live and Cloud images.
That will require building the images on ARM hardware, but DSA can
probably provide suitable hardware. Personally I prefer d-i though,
since images presumably wouldn't have full-disk encryption applied.

Seems reasonable to use it to discuss how to get things that Mobian
has created into a form that is suitable for inclusion into Debian.
