Hi all, This brainstorming goes in many directions... Great ! I think that the idea of having a tree structure with grey areas is quite interesting. First of all, many users will not see some gray anyway, as they will install Debian from DVD, or from a CD, but with a network connection available. For offline machines using CDs or (small) USB sticks, some areas would be gray, most likely including the CDD part if the install medium has not been customised. The way I see the CDD task working would be to "understand" the selection of the general tasks above. A Debian-Med install with a "server" task would install a different subset of Debian-Med metapackages as a "Desktop" one. Now if I understand correctly, Debconf does not allow two-layer structures... This is the kind of situation where voting in the BTS would be cool. It would give to the debconf maintainers an estimate of how wanted the feature is. Shall we submit a wishlist bug on tasksel, blocked by a withlist but on debconf?
