Dear Charles, I was looking at the Debian website and didn't realize that the deadline was extended, so I ended up filling out the Google application stuff yesterday.
I'm not sure what you needed from the SoC website, but the screenshot would require manual stitching of images. Here's the most relevant-seeming information: City: Kingston, Canada University: Queen's University (http://www.queensu.ca/) Degree: BScH Biochemistry and BSc Computing (two degrees) Expected Graduation: May 2008 Home Page: http://www.aidanfindlater.com/ IM Contact: aidanfindlater (AIM), @gmail.com (Google Talk), @jabber.org(Jabber), @ hotmail.com (MSN), @yahoo.ca (Yahoo IM); 12192596 (ICQ) I'm not really sure how it works from here on in. Did you guys have specific ideas about the tool? I was hoping that it would be modeled after apt-get or aptitude so that it would be already familiar to those using it. The proposal posted to the Debian site already looks pretty good to me. How does one get ahold of the preliminary draft? I'd be interested to see what kind of choices he's made with it. -Aidan On 31/03/2008, Charles Plessy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Le Mon, Mar 31, 2008 at 10:45:55PM +0200, Andreas Tille a écrit : > > > On Mon, 31 Mar 2008, Aidan Findlater wrote: > > > > >Oh, I forgot to mention that Debian is the best distro, and Vi is the > best > > >editor.
