I would really like to see a site or wiki page where all these (about 10) distros would be reviewed and compared every x weeks or so.. One could compare the availability of software (gprs, web, gps), stability, power saving features, ability to make phone calls and so on and maybe also list 'biggest annoyances' that then could hopefully be focused on by the developers/community. Is there anyone who could do this? Yeah, this is really needed. I would be happy to try images and report on them every week, I just don't have the time and resources to set up a server that would present the details properly, and I definitely don't want to bury this in the wiki. Something like what the GP2X scene has in the forms of regular updates and reviews would be ideal .. ; -- Jay Vaughan ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

This really is the intention of that wiki page, but we can't keep up with testing each distribution. I will be putting more time into testing the different distros. i think there should be more of a 'news and current details' sort of site, more than an authoritative list-of-distro's currently running, sort of thing .. sort of active pimpage. ; -- Jay Vaughan ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
