I just wonder: What makes you think, I -- and all members of the marketing list who thought the idea could be interesting -- would not bother about the quality of support and ask a "crappy" distro for cooperation? Well, nevermind. You probably have your reasons. I'm a little bit disappointed, though. > > I think a website that advertised the software that you care about, > with help on installing it on whatever distro they have, would be far > more useful an effective. > Thanks for the suggestion. :-) Unfortunatly, a website is already under construction. In fact, you and me already talked about it in a short 'footnotes comments' discussion. You said something like "Don't make us enter all the data, again" and I replied: "Developers won't need to bother about it." It is also already linked in the wiki. [1] However, the university outreach project has slightly other goals that you can't reach by using a website -- at least, from my point of view. But if you like me to stop working on the idea, just say so.
