IRC is good. Have some problems
Do we have some kind of roadmap or goal list of what projects we want to
work on next for ToriOS?

Some options for quick scripted application development include the usual
dialog/xdialog and bash route. dialog can be built using pdcurses and can
work with any backend pdcurses works with. That means you could
potentially use it with Wayland/SDL. There are several GTK based

Linux Questions is running their annual polls. If you want to vote in
them, now's the time. Maybe we can ask to get ToriOS listed in the polls
for next year. There's a section where you can write in your favorite
distributions and I mentioned ToriOS there.

I keep running across blog posts on the top Linux distributions for older
computers and the top lightweight distributions and similar topics. They
usually have comment sections open for people to post. There are also
some forums that have similar discussion threads. Think it would be great

Just found out about a graphics editor. Seems fairly lightweight. It's
called LodePaint ( https://sourceforge.net/projects/lodepaint/ ).
Dependencies include SDL 1.2.x and OpenGL. Don't know if anyone else has
heard of it, but was surprised I had not run across it before now. It's
not that act
As usual, I'm still looking for interesting lightweight, portable
applications. I just ran across a lightweight, highly portable GUI. It's
called nuklear. It runs using SDL or other options as a backend. Found a
list of some applications people are working on with it here:
