Well, I can't really choose anyone, since I don't know any of you :P

I'm still there, (almost) silently reading (docs, mailing-lists, ...),
and getting a bit more familiar with d-i and kernel packaging.

I've made little concrete progress (as I've not tried to build anything
yet), but I'm starting to understand how the d-i stuff works.
I can however foresee some issues, the first one being to generate an
u-boot image from a kernel udeb, since I've only managed to run images
based on vmlinux (and not vmlniuz), but maybe I haven't tried hard
enough yet :)
