RE: the solicitation of opinions

WindowMaker is a very popular window manager that RedHat has stopped including in their distribution.  That, and to throw mp3 support back into xmms ;)  Save us all the trouble...

Subject: [aurora-sparc-user] the solicitation of opinions


On IRC this morning, the discussion of Afterstep in Aurora came up, and
even though Red Hat Linux does not include Afterstep anymore, it is a
very useful lightweight window manager (that I've used successfully in
the past) that would be useful for sparc32, so I'm planning to include
it in the next Aurora build.

Since I'm working through the build process for the next Aurora build
(RHL 9 based), now is your time to suggest packages to be added to the
Aurora build that are not found in Red Hat Linux 9.

Note: The following packages will NOT be included in the official tree:
apt, apt-rpm, yum, yup, or any similar application. 

Requests for newer revisions of applications may be considered, but you
will need to rationalize them. "Its newer" is not rationalization.

So now is your chance. Speak now, or forever hold your piece. ;)
