Title: Re: [Oscar-devel] Oscar On Debian

Hi Eric:

 

As far as I am concerned that is the only OSCAR on Debian work that has been released to the public, and it is by no means complete.

 

However, that might be a good starting point if you want to start hacking.  I believe it was based off code we had in February, and a lot has changed since then.

 

Not sure if you will be attending SuperComputing 2004, because if you are, a few of the OSCAR on Debian developers are planning on meeting and brainstorming ideas on how to proceed.

 

If you won't be attending, we will definitely report back to the list and hopefully can start doing some coding soon after.

 

We will keep you posted on that - thanks for offering to help!

 

Cheers,

 

Bernard

I would love to help!  I downloaded the package that was on the wiki
and began looking at it.  Is this the latest version, or is there a
cvs of this?  Also what would you have me look at?

Thanks,
