In my experience it usually is - even though Ximian are on board now, there's still a lot of cleaning up to do. We had to do a lot of cleaning up when we packaged JDS on SuSE SLEC. I could tell you 100's of stories from Ximian people about the flamewars they've gone through and the stuff they've put up with. Entertaining stuff, but that's primarily why NLD was *so* late. Glynn
