22+ days later.... (and then some, because lists.alioth.debian.org was
down for a couple days...)

ok, i could just make a tarball of the svn code and call it version
0.1...  or i could spend a little longer and make it into a debian
package, with a little more flexibility configuration-wise...  thoughts?
anyone game for helping?

well, freegeek is getting awfully close to releasing freekbox3 to the
wild.  they've even sent out a guinea pig system.

i hope to make a debian-installer CD with simple-cdd to install the
freekbox3. i've been testing simple-cdd with qemu and the freekbox3
package selections and debconf answers, but that doesn't handle all the
customized configuration files that freekbox3 has (i.e. stuff that can't
be configured via debconf).=20

on the latest images i've built, there's room for about 50MB more debian
packages.. we could possibly make additional profiles that have similar
overlap to freekbox3(basically KDE, openoffice, firefox and
thunderbird), and still fit them on one 650MB CD.

so i guess debian-np could grab the freekbox3 installer cd and tweak it
slightly and call it debian-np's installer for desktops :)

live well,
