No-one volunteered. But recently Holger Levsen started working on a
Jenkins installation doing automated installation and upgrade testing
of complete desktop installation.
Check out <URL: http://jenkins.debian.net/ > if you want to see what
the status is at the moment. Perhaps someone here can help to improve
the tests and check that the Debian desktop setup is working properly?
