Re: Re: Activity and bugs.

Hi Morten,

since Christian did not speak up, I answer your questions as good as I can.

I don't know of any. What I know is:
- The latest released version does not work with LTSP 3.x
- The cvs version sort of works with LTSP 3.x

The default values come from the defaults section of lts.conf, so it does 
not make sense to add a host with only the default values. IMHO we have two 
options:
1. Allow it, and don't care about the redundant settings in lts.conf
2. Don't allow it and inform the user why.

I personally would prefer the second option.

We need Christians opinion on this, but I think: Continue the work in our 
tree unless you want to take over the whole module.
