IMOHO; I think there are two good systems that we can use as our models. One is the Linux system like Ubuntu with the store or repository. It has the advantage of being easy to use and a repository means that everything is in one place. I would hate do see it be like MS with open source where you have to go all over to find things and half don't work and it is loaded with trojans. The other is the Firefox system of add-ons. Both systems are easy to use and centralized. The other problem is that most add-ons are not well known. I personally don't know what most of the add-ons in preferences do and they are easy to activate and use. I guess this comes back to the documentation problems that exist etc. -- Douglas E Knapp Creative Commons Film Group, Helping people make open source movies with open source software! http://douglas.bespin.org/CommonsFilmGroup/phpBB3/index.php Massage in Gelsenkirchen-Buer: http://douglas.bespin.org/tcm/ztab1.htm Please link to me and trade links with me!
