I probably am not explaining stuff in detail assuming people on the list know what i am talking about, which is a mistake from my side. I will try to be more precise from now on! -- Velimir _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list [email protected] http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
