Not also changing language from shell to python/perl/C, right ? :-) > * Allow to include system completely in initrd.img (like debirf). I second this, that way a not-so-dumb adsl gateway with just dhcp and tftp can dispatch debian live to a SOHO. Not a bad feature at all. > * i18n/l10n support during early userspace (gettext, po4a) I'll prioritize that, for the sake of doing right the first time, or otherwise nobody will enable this after the codebase grown a bit far. Your list is really good, nothing more to add, maybe some GUI to configure/help the trickiest runtime features (like e.g. persistence/snapshots). I see that the once dreamed feature of really fast boot times using "some default common" resume image are now abandoned-ware ;-) -- ESC:wq -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-live-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
