What would be helpful to me would be more feedback about what would be
nice to have on tomsrtbt to make it better integrate with and support
Mandrake. I wasn't contacted when it was added to some versions, nor when
it was taken out, in both cases I would have liked to have at least been
notified, and in the second case, I would have welcomed some interaction
with the intent to fix the problems when they were first discovered. If
there was more input of the form "gee, it would make it more useful for
our distribution if _X_", or (especially), "you could add these features
while simultaneously saving _Y_ bytes if you did _Z_", then tomsrtbt might
be a better utility for those who use these distributions.
Look, I think there may be some false assumptions about what developers
may and may not know, at least in my case, I have never used _any_ package
managed distribution, I have never used RPMs or DEBs, all I know is what
is useful to rescue my own source-cobbled systems. I am glad to think
that shortcomings will present themselves with tomsrtbt when used with
these new-fangled package based distributions, but if no-one tells me what
those shortcomings _are_, it is difficult to do anything...
