Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] system requirements (workaround created!)
Just some thoughts. Will it be better to run df periodially at a several second interval during installation to get a more accurate number? So we can know the disk usage every second during the installation process. The maximum of the values collected plus a safety margin is the minimal disk space required for installation. After installation, we run df again to see how much disk space is used. Then, we reserved some space, maybe 256mb for swap and some space for other apps, maybe 512 MB. This value is the disk space suggested. We need more accurate number by measurement rather than by assumption. Is anyone willing to do this?

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] New header
I do like the blue scheme but i suggest maxing how many topics are shown in each box to only 4. The orange lettering when looked at long enough for reading will start to blur together.

I have had some thoughts about it and will try some things this afternoon again. I can't seem to give the links a custom color, therefor they are orange.

[Lubuntu-desktop] Well done!
Hi, It is with immense pleasure that I can tell the team that we are now at #4 on DistroWatch (http://distrowatch.com/index.php?dataspan=1) for the last seven days. This is an outstanding achievement. Each and everyone of you should feel proud. Lubuntu is a team effort and every bit of input regardless of being from telling people about lubuntu or a minor grumble to a major bug fix has made 11.04 something quite special.
