I've added in the corrections, I wondered if gnome might survive the upgrade.

Understand about giving up on your DE as I was using xfce for a very long time until recently but got fedup with how it looks and with dbus so switched to openbox. It can be configured to be as versatile as a desktop if not more, I wanted to add in a page about it but there's already an excellent blog here which is worth a little time if you can spare it: https://urukrama.wordpress.com/openbox-guide/

Sounds good, I'll make a list of completed stuff ready to be translated shortly and mail you.

Dear All and dev1fanboy,
 
this is just to let you know that I followed your guide to upgrade my debian wheezy install and it went very well!
Thank you for the great instructions.
It was a really messed up old installation and the upgrade sorted it out brilliantly.

Just as a note, gnome was still there at the end of the upgrade, refusing to start. I solved it with: # apt-get purge gnome* , followed by the installation of XFCE I am (was) a long time gnome user, so it was not a easy choice, but I definitely prefer to get accustomed to a new DE / WM rather than getting accustomed to systemd.
I still have to purge dbus, though.....
 
I am sure this list is not short of italian translators, but please let me know if I could help translating the guide for wiki or for other documentation purposes.

All the best.
 
Antonio
