Hi Holger,
Thanks for working on this, it's been left undone for way too long
(which makes me feel guilty, as I really ought to have managed to do
more to make it happen, so I really appreciate that you're working on
it).

Hi kibi,
blendsel is now ready to be integrated into d-i, pkgsel and tasksel need an

What are your thoughts for this?

TL;DR = blendsel looks uploadable, even if that mail looks long and full

Apologies for keeping you waiting here. For a range of reasons, I've
