New KMS drivers [3.3-3.10]
+
+ -
+ DRM/KMS drivers added for old, new and virtual hardware -
+ AST, DisplayLink, Hyper-V, Matrox G200, QEMU Cirrus
+
+ -
+ Should be more robust than purely user-mode drivers, and
+ compatible with Secure Boot
+
+ -
+ Current X drivers don't work with these, so the kernel drivers
+ are disabled for now
+
+ -
+ Want to make it work? Join the X Strike Force and package the
+ new X drivers

Module signing [3.7]
+
+ -
+ Kernel modules can be signed at build time, and the kernel
+ configured to refuse loading unsigned modules
+
+ -
+ Necessary but not sufficient to implement Secure Boot -
+ we would also need signed kernel images and some other
+ restrictions when booted in this mode
+
+ -
+ Want to make Secure Boot work? Come to the meeting on Tuesday

More support for discard
+
+ -
+ Flash devices (and thin-provisioned SANs) can be more efficient
+ if the filesystem 'discards' unused disk space
+
+ -
+ Requires support in hardware, driver, filesystem and any layered
+ device drivers - e.g. LVM, RAID (added in 3.7)
+
+ -
+ Must be explicitly enabled, but d-i doesn't do this by default
+
+ -
+ Want to make it work?
+ See http://bugs.debian.org/690977
