The Scheme sounds good. One only suggestion from my side, i would enable the updates once the repositories are enabled. For Example if I enable the non-free Repos i would like also to get the Updates for them. or maybe only security fixes and enable the other updates manually would be ok. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Greetings Daniel Kreuter
