The Debian Installer team is widely opened. Good place to be involved even if not an official DD. Ask Margarita Manterola who was our best tester at Debconf4 and continues to be a very careful bug reporter. Or Valentina Comissarri who made strong review of the Italian translations and promised me she would join the debian-l10n-italian team (I have to check this... ;-)) And there is a *lot* of work to do for Debian Installer (we just enter a feature freeze and bug squashing and high testing time period)....and this specific part of Debian is very likely to become one of the major blocking points for sarge release. And, well, this will be the part everyone will see. So, all people around, either highly technically skilled *or not*, you certainly can help in d-i development (I am a very good example of technically challenged people doing some possibly useful work). Please jump in. My knowledge of my fellow co-workers sailing in this dancing boat now make be sure that no bad sexist attitude of any kind would happen. And if it would, my shotgun is ready..:-)
