Yes, i see. I suppose it is lot of effort to backport everything to stable?=
 It=20
would be very interesting if we could share the effort on the=20
(security-supported, more on that later) desktop and possibly kalyxo-stable=

branch of debian.

Oh, very good :). It'd be very cool if you could point us at the scripts so=
 we=20
can take a look. We were thinking about using the debian-cd script-set, but=
=20
if yours is superior, we'll stick to yours (or is it based on debian-cd?).=

More details would be appreciated. As for the installer, very well, i'm hap=

everything goes well, it could be that kalyxo and tuxum are in fact just=20

We are currently working on a release plan, i'll make it public real soon n=

and will announce on the list. Hold on.
