[fx: wild cheers and enthusiasm] However, a DP1 release just wouldn't be RIGHT without at least a few port packages to go along with it. So.. To that end.. Please mail me (ade@) your list of top-20 must-have ports that you would like to see packages for alongside DP1. This ABSOLUTELY, DEFINITIVELY EXCLUDES X11 and anything that depends on it. Please. I have a single-cpu 270MHz U5. With 128MB of RAM. With a 6Gb IDE drive. With a CMD controller. :) Entries no later than 0000 CST (0600 GMT) Tuesday, 25th March, giving me about a week (I think), to collate the entries, and start building and patching.
