This is similar to Ubuntu's "universe" component, where it is understood that there are relatively few developers directly caring for a large number of packages. > I don't like the idea of having tons of repositories (i.e. Ubuntu) Ubuntu's archive has four components (main, restricted, universe, multiverse) to Debian's three (main, contrib, non-free). -- - mdz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
