this is a good thread .. all members please contribute .. let's generate traffic to get the super set of all goodies
BUT i feel this way : - linux is a very techie subject too - linux is a very simple OS too so maybe we could approach this issue by having CD's based on 3 levels level-0 - a cd with the smallest possible number of things .. really small level-1 - the standard ilug-cal CD .. with commonly accepted components level-2 - like the pro version of s/w .. lots of goodies packed in .. for power users normally level-1 CD would be handed over to normal members members abs new to linux L-0 CD could initiate the un-initiated L-2 CD's could be for the power users, the more adventurous. So the job just now would be to get a reasonably good set of sturdy and stable collection of items which would work FLAWLESSLY across all h/w platforms without hanging up at all .. this would be important .. the inclusions then would have to be viewed not on parameters of familiarities and favourites .. but on SURE SHOT working on all h/w (say from 386 upwards .. and maybe other processorts like AMD, Cyrix too) .. i would say that members are members .. each having legacy h/w or latest h/w .. to tie up in the ilug-cal thread thru an ilug-cal CD .. the LCM/HCF concept of maths would be a good model .. a collection that would surely work on ALL h/w combos is very important ..pk ----- Original Message ----- From: Sankarshan Mukhopadhyay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Linux Users Group - Kolkata <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, December 07, 2002 10:34 AM Subject: [ilug-cal] A blueprint for the CD contents [?] > Please find below a blueprint for the CD contents, my line of thought.
