IMO, nothing wrong with talking about it here. if people want to filter it out they can. it is a valid use of Debian to construct a derivative, and some of us may find it interesting. :) the last time i did a basic install of Debian it was around 200 packages (base system and a few others i needed), i'm not sure what the base system install for Jessie is like. songbird -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
