Can't agree more. Application developers just have to provide distro friendly sources (preferrably git or svn repo, but tarball hosted on trusted server is also ok), packaging and integrating into distro has to be done by distro developers. This way packages won't be out of date and data in showroom will be really easier to maintain. -- Sebastian Krzyszkowiak dos _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
