+Note
+----
+
+live-boot is moving from a monolithic script into a proper
+plugin architecture for better maintenance and customization.
+
+Additionally, this will allow us to abstract initramfs-tools
+integration to also support other initrd generators, such as
+dracut.
+
+Unfortunately, from a developers point of view, we could no
+finish this in time for wheezy, but we will finish this for
+jessie. Please excuse the sorry state of the 9990-* scripts.
+From a users point of view, it doesn't matter at all though.
