I am not aware of any specific connection issues. The method you described is not 
supported by the project so maybe somebody else here can provide specific assistance?

In general, the Israeli Internet Connection Wizard (http://iwiz.linux-kinneret.org) is 
the official tool. However it still awaits testing and debugging of the connection 
scripts so it can't be useful to everybody yet.

Using this opportunity, if anybody is willing to assist with testing and debugging 
different configurations (basic shell and bash knowledge is needed) then please 
contact me by a private message and I will make sure you get all the details.

Package selection is taking into consideration many factors, such as the target 
population, suitability to task, capacity of the CD, redundancy and so on. 
Unfortunately it is possible to include everything everybody wishes.

However, since the package selection process is open and public, you are welcome to 
propose additional packages through the "suggestions" forum in the project's web site, 
along with the justification for doing so.

Note that no changes were made or will be made to program names. The project respects 
the names given by the developers regarding of whether these are considered good or 
bad names.

This statement is too generic. If you would care to be more specific then maybe an 
answer can be given as to whether there are plans to include such documentation.

Since I am not sure this is of interest to everybody in this mailing list, you are 
welcome to express yourself in the project's documentation forum.

As a side note, any help with documentation will be also appreciated. Interested 
parties can obtain information and propose ideas in the above forum.

The forums can be accessed from the project's main page: http://www.linux-kinneret.org/
