yes, my packages are the only one that test masters scripts for non-i386
maintainer source uploads. :-)
This is now possible but it was not always the case in the past.
Its time to remember:
- multi archs cds are comming
- work is in progress for downloading serveral arch binaries from our web
pages
- documentation will be better and better
- debian is always free
but: we have always no consens for an easy installation - what means: (new)
users have
not the choice to select for a base- , middle- or big-installing
procedure.
This is more important then a x11 installation (for boot-floppies).
[joda filter off] :-)
