Re: this page needs some love

 

Hi Karl,

No offence taken, it is VERY difficult to read my mind. Cryptic and only
open to a very select group of people.
I've already noticed you changed the page and what you did was fine. I'll
only make a small change for now and that is the mention of that
"authorative list". It's now at the bottom and to me (not a native speaker
of English) it wasn't instantly clear that the link was for the packages
link. I'll also want it more prominently on the top of the page so that
those who *want* to get into the nitty-gritty of what packages are included
can do so more easily.

And I just read Phill's reply and it's true what he says: the less
duplication and release depend pages are the better. Not only will pages be
more "up-to-date" by default by not relying on a single release, it also
means less work with a new release.

I hope this gives a little "insight" into how my brain works ^_^

With metta, Chris

P.s.: with "for now" I'll mean that I'll hope someone will keep it
up-to-date with new releases/changes. Otherwise it'll come on the list of
making release independent (only to be added a single line every release
with a link to the new packages link).
