FAI was first released after the potato was the stable release, so it
could not go into potato, but is always in the tree of unstable and
testing. But I wanted to support the stable Debian version. It is also
mentioned in the README, that the default templates and configurations
are for potato (See also NEWS file).

Maybe the next version of FAI will be the "woody default" version and potato
support will be dropped. But I'm not sure when to drop potato support.
