After thinking about this some more, I am interested in testing
snapshots. My plan to put together a demonstration using the
squeeze alpha installer.  Basically, I'll just modify the apt sources
so that it installs a snapshot.d.o snapshot from the day that the
installer was released (Feb 21st 2010).

That's rather straightforward and simple, so it can be done rather
quickly (when I find the time). The hard part for this approach is
setting up a mirror network for snapshot.d.o's squeeze snapshots. I'm
not a DD, so I can't do any work on that, but its really needed if
snapshots were to become popular.

Best wishes,
Mike
