| * Implement Kickstart compatibility using new debconf preseeding feature in d-i. * should be a relatively simple translation job * Move from devfs and discover to udev and hotplug. * Support any new architectures being added to Ubuntu (ia64 is a candidate). * Support USB-stick installs; not everyone can manage with CD or netboot (and unfortunately the kernel doesn't fit on a floppy). * Ask all questions before the first reboot. * Fix bugs! == Goals for Breezy == * Develop a graphical front-end to d-i. * preferably build on the existing work that's been done on cdebconf-gtk * work out a way to hook custom UI widgets into debconf: glade, complete custom widgets or debconf callbacks or both * usability testing * cooperate with DesktopTeam, maybe HIGify? * write PartitionProber d-i component, which will find partitions from computer's hard disk(s) (and maybe other non-hotplugabble storage), for example windows C (and other) disks, linux and *bsd partitions from other distributions, etc... == Bug List == https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/buglist.cgi?keywords=installer&resolution=--- == People == * ColinWatson |

Where to File Bugs
If you have a bug in the installer found on the "desktop" or "live" CD (the graphical installer), then please file that against the "ubiquity" package.
If you have a bug in the installer found on the "alternate", "server", or "install" CD (the text-based installer), then please file that against the "debian-installer" package in the first instance. It may be assigned to a more appropriate package later.
Goals and Responsibilities
- Maintain the Ubuntu installer at the quality of the last stable release or better.
- Keep the Ubuntu installer in sync with the Debian installer as much as we can, and feed back relevant changes.
- Develop new installer features, in cooperation with Debian and with the other groups using d-i.
- Support users who have problems installing Ubuntu.
