== contrib/non-free ==

I use the following packages from Debian contrib/non-free (and their deps):

 * Hardware enablement: intel-microcode firmware-iwlwifi
 * GFDL GNU documentation: gcc-doc gdb-doc make-doc tar-doc

== Goals ==

 * [[OldPkgRemovals#defoma|defoma -> fontconfig migration]]
 * [[Derivatives]] / [[MergeDerivedDistributions|unsupported.d.n]]
 * improve the [[Games/Team|games team]]

== wishlist ==

 * better communication on Debian fora
 * d-i:
   * get rid of the concept of default desktops
   * more integration of Debian blends
   * support for touchscreen-only and mobile devices
 * dpkg:
   * versioned Provides
   * Supersedes to get rid of transition packages
   * allow packages to register files as belonging to them
   * a mode where packages can be generically-configured but not configured for specific machines (useful for OEM images, OpenSSH keys for eg are machine-specific and should not be in OEM images).
 * apt:
   * integration with debdelta
   * a better format for sources.list
 * dak:
   * get rid of DMUA
 * aptitude:
   * sync dpkg and aptitude holds

== Stuff to consider packaging ==

Cool software/stuff that I saw on blogs/elsewhere and thought should be in Debian or [[MergeDerivedDistributions#DebianUnsupported|Debian Unsupported]] at some point. Note that it isn't necessarily stuff I would use, just that the people who might would appreciate it a lot. This was festering in my ~/TODO so I decided it needed airing out. I've moved the list of links into [[PaulWise/InterestingSoftware|an interesting software subpage]].
