One common thing amongst all these people is that they live in France. Therefore it's been suggested that a new slogan for Frugalware might be required to honour the country which has the most developers. The slogan proposed is "Frugalware - let's make things French!". Another option would be to have a slogan for each country - the Australian slogan proposed is "Frugalware - let's all have another beer!"</p> <h3>I'm an April Fool :(</h3> - <p>On 1 April 2008, boobaa sent an email to the development mailing list announcing his resignation.

This caused many people to laugh, possibly while rolling on the floor. In my defense all I can say is <b>it was night when I read his message</b>. I didn't think to take into account the difference in time zones. Anyway I'm looking forward to next year when I'll probably again be made a fool. :)</p> + <p>On 1 April 2008, boobaa sent an email to the development mailing list announcing his resignation.
