I think it is really great that someone is finally planing to update this old app and replace it with something more modern. I think that what this app is supposed to do is: 1. Start when you insert Mandrake CD (obviously :)) 2. Have buttons as now to access documentation that is on CD (especially Instalaltion docs, README,...) 3. Documentation is in HTML format so the app should use browser that is registered as default to open the docs. So it should not always open Internet Explorer if you have Mozilla or Opera or some other browser registered as default browser 4.Have some Exit/Cancel button to exit from the app 5. have the ability to be localized. 6. Automatically detect which locale/language user is using and use the translation/docs in that language if it is available. The default could be english but I think it would be very nice to have a dropdown list of all languages available. 7. Be GPLed I think that is it. Offcourse others can add something to the list. And if I can halp in any way just tell me. I am not a programmer but maybe there is probably something I can help you with. -- Live long and prosper!
