Re: Xombrero

 

Hi Luis,

just as an update, following on from a couple of bug reports Julien (our
head of dev) is going to get the most recent xombrero onto the
'un-official' [1] hopefully in the next few days. Have you had any luck
with getting it sponsored for debian? As a completely mad request, is there
any chance of making a ppc version of it? It has been asked for, so I did
promise to at least ask :)

Regards,

Phill.
