I didn't exactly forget, but since you ask... The list was taken from Ubuntu 6.06 beta (release due out in June). It's been a long time since I saw much advandage to TSL when compared with Debian. People like to claim size matters to them, but I just made a calculation and discovered that what my employer pays for 1 hour of my time would easily buy them a few gigs of HP 15k hotswap SCSI disk (when bought in reasonable volumes such as 142GB). As for embedded uses where HP servers are not an option, I did at one time make a fully functional (as in: sshd and apt working) Debian 3.0 based system for embedded use which used something like 48MB of flash. As for the wonderfulness of swup, all we ever wanted that to be was apt, just with rpm and signatures, and preferably not written in C++. TSL is good if using the non-graphical console a lot makes your job look difficult, thus impressing your manager. (of course, many may argue that other distributions do just as good a job at that, too. A sysadmin at a former employer did quite successful work with Gentoo in that respect..)
