Ah, rootskel was mentioned in your first list too, probably by accident
then. So from this email, 3 packages are still pending arch uploads.

  No.
 
 And also, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the images that are 
 available currently.

Fair 'nough.  Steve makes a good point about recent h/w. I misunderstood
and need to reread the thread; I thought there was a problem with the
current images.

 Right, so here goes.

 1) Feel free to remove loop-aes-modules from testing.

 2) Hints for packages providing udebs that their maintainers have already
requested earlier
 unblock klibc/1.4.34-1
 unblock module-init-tools/3.3-pre4-1
 unblock ttf-dejavu/2.14-2

All done, thanks.

 3) Hints for other packages providing udebs not maintained by D-I team
 # Fix for problems in busybox sort
 unblock busybox/1:1.1.3-4

Unblocked

 # Maintainer seems MIA, last uploads were NMUs - up to RMs
 unblock expat/1.95.8-3.4
 # Needs to migrate to get rid of obsoleted udeb in testing
 unblock ttf-dzongkha/0.2-4

Apparently taken care of by Luk

 # Translation updates only
 unblock dhcp3/3.0.4-13
 unblock ppp/2.4.4rel-6

Unblocked

 The following packages should possibly be allowed into testing. Both are 
 new (minor) upstream releases, but they are more than old enough:
 - devmapper/2:1.02.12-1  # 2 Dec; fixes suspend related problem 
 - xfsprogs/2.8.18-1  # 8 Dec; current version in testing from Aug.

If there isn't a specific request for these from the d-i side, I don't plan
to unblock them; the diffs are significant.

 4) Hints for packages providing udebs maintained by D-I team
 unblock cdebconf/0.113
 unblock flash-kernel/1.0
 unblock glantank/1.3
 unblock installation-report/2.28
 unblock os-prober/1.15
 unblock user-setup/1.10

All unblocked.

Thanks,

I may be talking nonsense but would it make sense to advise people to

No.

- Lots of new hardware doesn't work with sarge but does work with etch.
- Installing sarge gives us no testing of the installer that we're going to
  be releasing.
- There's plenty of information pointing people to sarge already, if a user
  is looking for etch specifically, we want to be able to help them install
  it directly.
