Re: KDE Live CD/DVD

I like your ideas, but unfortunately my time for this task is gone. I am
going to fix a bug with the pre-defined user I created, and add things my
mentor thinks I should have add, if I get a time extension.
Maybe I will take more KDE's tasks, or even stay around after the GCI...
Anyway, feel free to ask any changes to the live CD I created, and when I
succeed putting it on GIT repo (help, someone?), to send patches.
