Some package don't needed for Ubuntu Server edition

[Jack Ryder]

I agree with Hassan.
The "ubuntu-minimal" package should include mandatory package for a server
environment
with a maximum level of security (no ssh, samba, ... by defaut)
But the package should remain on the CD.
I think that additionnal server template should be accessible once the
minimal installation has been conducted through a ncurse interface.

for example:
# server-reconfigure
 - internet access
 - wireless
 - samba/nfs server
 - ssh server
 - LAMP server
