The aim is good, but I’m not sure if such a script pill approach is best there. People don’t learn from using them (besides their own new syntax). Wouldn’t the same information not be more appropriate in a HOWTO? A section on the Wikipage or a subpage? With commands to copy’n’paste? Note that these scripts will never suite anyone (e.g. in your example, removing zhone), but with a HOWTO, people can modify it while they do it, they learn more about their system, and they are simpler to create. > >> The default /root/.xsession contains a snippet like this. > >> > >> if [ ! -e /root/.welcome-seen ] > >> then > >> touch /root/.welcome-seen > >> xmessage "Welcome to your new Debian installation.

This could probably reviewed regularly. For example, the python-evas issue is resolved, isn’t it? I find this page a bit too large and not very clear. Maybe it should be broken down. But then, writing good documentation is always hard, and it’s not necessarily easier on a wiki.
