Ok, so we could leave the "No desktop" section as is.
Since desktop environments like Gnome and KDE still move forward and add
new features, it seems likely to me, that memory requirements could change
over 4 years.
In Jessie and Stretch, we have
With desktop | 256 megabytes | 1 gigabyte | 10 gigabytes
What do people think about doubling the minimum value from
256 to 512 megabytes at least?
(Since Gnome is the default desktop, we should choose values here, that will
work almost for Gnome. Orienting on LXDE or Xfce is probably not the right
thing ...)
