Debian Parl is listed there, and is not in stable yet, and also has no links to its metapackages. It is in principle orthogonal to the listing for the Debian installer; however: this listing is done manually, and when I did it, I needed to gather the information which blends to include. I took the www.d.o/blends page as the definitive source for such information, and I am probably not the only one. I got misleaded here, the next one will probably as well. So, why not just include a link to the metapackage listing of Debian Parl there? Again, please be pragmatic here. Best regards Ole
