Hello everyone. Andreas Girardet was kind enough to provide some space for the minimalistic, desktop-oriented, optimized 1 CD install of SUSE 10, called SLICK (which stands for *S*UPER *Li*te: *C*ore + *K*DE.
Since a lot of these goals have already been implemented via the 1 CD Install project, that is going to be the base for it, along with whatever work (if any) has already been done on the SUPER KLIK part. First thing though, I guess we need to establish some guidelines as to what is considered the Core + KDE part of SLICK. This is the backbone of the operating system that is still managed by RPM and can be updated, if so desired, by YaST Online Update. I thought that for starters, it would be nice to have a look at SUSE 10.0 RC1 rpms and mark those that would form the core of SLICK. For add-on applications, I would like to give klik a chance, since the developer has expressed interest in working with the openSUSE community to provide support for it. I definitely find the idea very interesting, though I also believe it needs to iron out some rough edges. More on this later, perhaps. I would greatly appreciate any ideas or comments you might have regarding this project, as well as any help I can get. I have nowhere near Andreas' experience in this field, I am mostly a Java developer and have been a Linux enthusiast since 1997 and will therefore greatly appreicate any guidance you may wish to provide. Remember to check out SLICK and SUPER_KLIK pages in the openSUSE wiki.
