I don't think it'd be easy to maintain an heterogenous system of debianised software on top of non-debianised base packages from upstream. If an essential part of the system happens to be broken, there's no BTS to keep track about it, and no Debian Maintainer to blame^W get help from ;) IMHO the best way would be providing a complete base system on which we can relay on.. we're certain that debian packages are well integrated on GNU/Linux, so if we port them from the base they might need lesser tweaks to work. I'd also prefer an installation program to start on a bare windoze system than some scripts to start on an already installed cygwin environment. regarding to the name, how about asking for a poll in debianplanet? -- ---------------------------------------------------- Robert Millan Debian GNU/Hurd user zeratul2 wanadoo es http://getyouriso.dyndns.org/ ---------------------------------------------------- GPG ID C8D6942C 237F 8688 C2E5 BC64 E152 97B4 FB28 D41B C8D6 942C ---------------------------------------------------- Join us in civil disobedience and distribute DeCSS!! ---------------------------------------------------- /* efdtt.c Author: Charles M.
