Hi,

I can't call My privat home server a "server" like I have at work. I
never seen a server from Dell/HP/Sun with  wireless. My idea is not to
have these packages installed by default like openssh-server it's not
installed by default for security reason (you can install it with
apt-get without internet connection because you can get it from the
CDRom). So the same things should be for wpa* or ppp*

The main goal for Ubuntu Server is to be robust server disribution
without extra.


It's only a suggestion.



Regards,
