Notes moved to specification.
MS Windows part moved to other blueprint
Sysroots moved to other blueprint
Generic Linux moved to other blueprint

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/foundations-o-dbgsym-integration/ will provide some help to get image with -dbgsym packages (can be probably used to populate also -dev packages).
