I can only care about FAI in Debian. In the past Ubuntu often changed
things that broke FAI. So I myself will not switch to Ubuntu. But you could
make a lot of people happy by helping care about the FAI packages in
Ubuntu.

I also would guess that using FAI packages from lenny (or more recent
ones from my repository) for softupdates should work, but you never
know what Ubuntu has changed and what may brake things in FAI.
