And if you, (or anyone else) had actually bothered to read the
proposal you would realise that this is a proposal for redesigning the
UI for the control centre, just a shell which lets people choose a
YaST module. A re-write of yast or changing the package management
system, or moving to a web UI etc were not even mentioned. This might
be as simple as picking an off-the-shelf browser such as
system-settings or its gnome equivalent, or writing a very simple
application.

The primary concern has been how to organise and show the existing
YaST modules so that people can find what they're looking for easily.
This isn't about re-writing YaST.

This hasn't stopped lots of people on the list from creating
completely off-topic discussion though.
