Hi, with wheezy EOL, we should get a final point release out. In order to avoid version skew, it'd be good to have a jessie point release around the same time, so if that works for everyone let's do them both on the same Saturday again.

Or will the images be broken when that happens? (added debian-kernel to Cc accordingly). The netboot and businesscard at least will be broken, AIUI, because they get udebs from the network and those need to match the d-i kernel. OTOH they'll probably be broken by non-ABI-changing kernel changes anyway, so maybe that doesn't matter. For the other images I don't believe there should be a problem, as they already include the appropriate module udebs and install the final kernel through the linux-image-foo metapackages.

We should document that on the website before the Squeeze release, obviously the prominent links should point to Debian images; links to non-free firmware images should be provided under big fat warnings that they are not part of Debian and supported only to the extent that not having their source code permits.
