I think everyone installing virtualbox-ose on debian will have the README.Debian and the other documents provided with the package but not necessarily net access. And of course, if it helps others to implement what they want I see NO reason not to include it in the package itself as Debian is user friendly, isn't it? I don't like the idea that if there is lack of documentation IN Debian, users tend to search for informations in mostly outdated wikis, cook-books and howtos. That just increases annoyance without helping much. If the documentation is provided with the package itself, the user can almost be 100% sure the solution / documentation fits for his current Debian release. If you feel unhappy with bloating README.Debian too much, another document like README.bridge-setup or example-bridge-setup would benefit users who want to use a bridged setup without bloating the absolut necessary and minimum README.Debian. > Michael dito :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
