The development team is looking at making a big change: Making Keryx a desktop application rather than a portable one.
Here's a very simple illustration of the change: http://mac9416.com/uploads/portable_to_desktop.png Currently, Keryx consists of two parts -- the application and the project -- which are stored together on a flash drive. In the new layout, there would be three parts: the offline installation, the online installation, and the project. The two installations would be traditional desktop apps; the project would be carried on a flash drive. Instead of one tarball containing Windows and Linux binaries, there would be a Windows installer and an Ubuntu .deb package. The advantages of this new layout are 1) people would feel more comfortable with traditional desktop installers than they are with portable binaries and 2) Keryx could be added to the Ubuntu repositories which would give it more visibility. Do you see any potential problems with making this move? Can you think of other advantages? Any thoughts are welcome! _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~keryx Post to : keryx@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~keryx More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
