Thanks for the advance notice -- It's also nice to have some feedback
about what tests might be useful.

One could send such notifications via a hook script, but so far I only
have a script for returning status to CI jobs on salsa (and I suspect
that outbound SMTP is not set up on that system), so it'll take a bit of
effort to make something like that possible.

We're mainly focused on testing D-I daily images at present, and they
default to installing testing -- there's nothing to stop one installing
unstable, except that it more often breaks for uninteresting (to us
Debian Installer folks) reasons.

Not a problem.  Feel free to ask away, as it would be nice to spread
things to testing a wider set of use-cases, which really needs people
who care about testing different things to get involved.

Cheers, Phil.
