Hey Jakub, The installer is just a first test for installing OM via script, the next few iterations will include upgrades, removal, backup restore etc...
I don't see any mess in the root file system, everything is contained in the /usr/adm folder that can be removed if you want after installation, everything else is in the standard "Debian" places. A Deb file would of course be beneficial for many.

I did not found auto installer earlier. I thought about crating DEB file. Auto Installer is great attempt to automate installation, but it generete some mess in root filesystem. I think DEB package would be more elegant solution. For example: what if I would like to upgrade OpenMeetings, or remove it? Making a DEB package also creates posibility to include it in Debian official repositories. (so end-user have to type: apt-get install openmeetings... and that's it!) By the way: I installed OpenMeetings on Debian (on virtual machine) by hand, and it works like a charm. Now I think about set it up in production enviroment. -- Jakub Skory, <kuba(at)ukw(dot)edu(dot)pl> System Operator IT Center: _______________________________________________________________________ tel: +48 52 3257 649, +48 52 3257 647 fax: +48 52 3257 646, +48 52 3257 647 working hours: 08a.m. - 04p.m. mail: di(at)ukw(dot)edu(dot)pl web: http://di.ukw.edu.pl/ postal address: M.
