* "Cassandra Lynette Brockett" | But where in the documentation does it mention that boot-floppies | are being EOL-ed? I only found this out after people started | yelling at me because I wanted to add some more functionality to the | boot-floppies, and so far I still am yet to find out information on | how to actually install using debian-installer.
I've sent out monthly announcements on the progress of debian-installer for about six months to debian-devel-announce. The release of the alpha version was both slashdotted and featured on Debianplanet. So, I wouldn't call it very secret or hidden. True, it's not documented on the web pages, but if you intend to help out with Debian development, debian-devel-announce is one of the more important lists to be subscribed to. Searching for �debian-installer� on google turns up cvs.debian.org/debian-installer/doc/ as the first link. I do not know why the search engine on www.debian.org does not search cvs.debian.org, nor lists.debian.org. | Well, there are some of us who want to help, and make changes to the | system to improve it, there are also others who have great ideas, | but can't code to save their life, and expecting those users to come | up with code patches because you don't want to see messages asking | for improvements just ranks high on my list of wrong. As the last status report says: : If you want to help out, please take a look at : http://raw.no/d-i/getting_started.html and especially the TODO list : at http://url.raw.no/?101 You can find the full alpha announcement at http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2002/debian-devel-announce-200212/msg00002.html (sorry about the long link), which should get you started.
