[cAos-devel] My recent spate of commits

[Steve]

Hi,
 
I have missed my windows p2p app that got shut down, now amule sounds
interesting especially the daemon feature. 
 
Im new to caos and im blown away with caos3, its simple installation and
100% reliability.
 
Im just above newbie level and not a programmer but im happy to test and
feedback and will add more to the wiki when I can.

Hi all, 
 
Noone ever seems to be about on irc when I am, so I thought I'd strike 
Up some discussion here instead... 
 
A friend of mine works as a .net programmer, and has decided to 
Convert his home network (1 server for ed2k:// type stuff and 1 laptop) 
To Linux! (m$ must be getting bad if he's converting :-) ) 
 
Of course I've suggested cAos and he's very interested, and I may be 
Able to twist his arm on some packaging too, but so far in his 
Installation I've been picking up bits (like foomatic and his printer 
Driver) that he needs. 
 
As an emule user he's got a big interest in aMule, so, the current rev 
Of aMule requiring libiconv, I've committed that so I can update our 
AMule package that's nearly 2 years old... 
 
The main bonus of having him on cAos will be his asking me for desktop 
Packages, where my work load is on the server packages. 
 
I'm still concerned about our lack of a cAos-3 desktop edition and our 
Upgrade paths, can we get some discussion going here on that? I may be 
Able to package some things, others like Xorg are out of my league. 
 
Okay, I've waffled enough for now, let's have someone else waffle :-)
