I read that you raised something new. Bandwidth usage was not highlighted as the reason for switching to XFCE. It was that it doesn't fit on a cd. I'll quote an earlier message: | One of the reasons put forward for switching to Xfce was size on the | installation images; could you (and/or debian-cd) address this? | | Specifically: 1) Would you want the default CD/DVD image to use a GNOME | even if GNOME was unable to fit on a single image? 2) Would the GNOME | team consider a less-complete DE for cases where image size is a | restriction? You're talking about installing over the network. That was is something new, meaning: shifting goalposts. -- Regards, Olav _______________________________________________ Pkg-xfce-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-xfce-devel
