Ideas

• move CD booting to grub2/gfxterm (ColinWatson)

• smoother boot splash via grub2/efifb (ColinWatson, ScottJamesRemnant)

• multiarch redux
• find and aggressively deal with packages whose merges have been lagging for several releases

• finish Upstart (ScottJamesRemnant)

• Implement the installer redesign spec (EvanDandrea)

• make update-notifier a more modular design (probably with vala), it has out-grown to be a update-notifier since some time (MichaelVogt)

• make screenshots.ubuntu.com show ubuntu branding and add support for PPAs and archive.canonical.com (MichaelVogt)

• removal of demoted packages on upgrade (all, only auto-installed ones, only default installed ones, only unused (how to detect)?

• Download updates while installing (EvanDandrea)
