Hi guys! How are you doing there?
First of all, if we do not exchange emails in the mean time i really wish to you all a great merry christmas/new year time! :) Folks, i think it is fine to get the list of software to update and repack it for fd 1.1 and count on me for this but i would prefer to move it to devel, what do you all think? btw, which batches need review? ah, i've done the translation of fdupdate 0.53(i guess) but it is lost somewhere in my disk... talking about fdupdate, can we make fdupdate our package manager? of course we would need to add some features, like fdupdate, been able to check local repos(for cd/floppies/usb/...) instead only "networked repos" what do you all think? Count on me for FD 1.1!
