+
+I am not sure what this means in this context, but the time for
+discussion about live CDs will certainly come sooner or later.
+
+This first Alpha is meant to
+
+ - test the build system in all its parts up to a release
+ - test the bootstrapping process
+
+ - (last but not least) show the progress of the project.
+
+Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it will net even have a graphical
+interface (x server).
