I still can't find a link to: http://cdd.alioth.debian.org/gis/tasks/workstation.html - though there is a link to the http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=education-geography metapackage [1]. > > http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGis/PackageList > > (not all packages on that list are included in tasks) There appear to be 3 lists: education-geography,science-geography and gis-workstation (that nobody mentions, and I found from a previous mail by Andreas). I can see merit[2] in two - education-geography for schools, and one of science-geography or gis-workstation for researchers. > > Anybody cares to maintain the tasks files?

Hamish suggested I edited the wiki - and it is possible I may find time to do that - but I certainly can't do it until I know what the wiki should say. The obvious solutions to me are: A) Do as is done for debian-med and have the science-geography task that depends on gis-workstation. In another mail, Andreas points to improvements that will allow #includes in metapackages in the not too distant future. B) Just use the science-geography task (possibly renamed) and i) Get the DebianScience wiki page to point at http://wiki.debian.org/DebianGis or ii) Move the contents of DebianGis to DebianScience/Geography C) Something else. Chris [1] Andreas, perhaps you should also add a link to the task pages to point to the corresponding metapackages. [2] I'm a physicist, not a geographer, so I may well have completely missed the point here. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
