Yes indeed, I still want to to do this in the long run, although I had in
my mind to concentrate on Wheezy first. Anyway, I mostly have things ready
to go but don't have time for the final parts (doc, mostly) right now. I will

situation has settled a bit.

Of course if you're in a hurry to get started that's no problem.
