1  Done this week:  Done this week:
2  - choose-mirror is usable  - udebs are flooding into sid
3  - wget retriever works, needs some things like proxy support  - demo3 is a chrooted demo system
4  - cdebconf udebs build now, and it is usable    http://people.debian.org/~joeyh/debian-installer/
 - demo2a.tar.gz, demo system that can download udebs from the web  
   and uses cdebconf (20001208215147.A1035@tausq.org)  
 - netcfg has been started, to perform manual network configuration  
 - package pools are here, and udebs can be uploaded

6  Still Todo (for individual TODO lists, see inside the trees of the  Where we are:
7  individual modules):  
8    Now that we have a chrooted system, it's time to start seriously looking at
9    the size of the d-i base system. library reduction and trimming down
10    busybox need to be done soon. It's also time to start writing the modules
11    that are actual components of the installer, like the disk partitioner, the
12    disk formatter, etc, etc.
