Hey everyone, just wondering what was happening in Tori OS land.
I am still busy with LMMS right now, so I haven't had a chance to update the website at all.
What has been happening with the OS?
Was the default WM ever fully chosen?
If so, what has been happening getting the stuff in order.
If we choose JWM, we will need a small app to configure the settings, as most new users wont want to try to edit a config file themselves. I have a few ideas for what could be done (separating out certain parts of the .jwmrc, like the tray, the windows, the background, etc..) I think it would be nice to make a little fltk app using something like tinyxml, or if Alex is really set on it a special hand-made xml parser to go through the different config files, and edit the parameters. I suppose then all this stuff could be packaged up, and added to a ppa...

Just thinking about Tori OS, and JWM so I thought I throw this out here.

I will try to get back to the website soon, but we are trying to get a feature freeze exception for LMMS, and get some much needed packaging changes in place (such as separating out wine in the event people don't want to use VSTs..) I am pbuilding, and tweaking things to get everything perfect in hopes that this will be accepted!!

Hi my friend,

1- I'm not sure if everyone has seen my status on Google+ and Facebook or not? My Grandmother is sleeping at the ICU for 2 days now - her heartbeat reached 26 and she has to stay on the ICU. I've been very sick yesterday because I got a very shocking text message telling me about what happened in away that shows she passed away so it seems my blood pressure became so low.
However, I'm here because I still care :)

2- The most important thing is: as with any system in the world, it needs a developer. Alex has been busy to the point that he couldn't do anything yet. Sadly, I'm not a developer and we couldn't find a team of developers so one could cover the other. That said, we need to wait for Alex.

That's all.

I'm silent because there is nothing new to say.


Hope everyone is doing well!!

Hope you're okay.

Thanks for your email.


Hi Ali, I am very sorry to hear this. I do not 'get on' G+ usually, and I do not have facebook... so I did not know this.
I will be in prayer for you and your grandmother.

I understand that Alex is very busy.  I have been so busy lately too.

On the plus side, Lubuntu 14.04 will be LTS, so that will cover many of the 'better' computers.
I do hope you and your grandmother are better.
Thanks my friend.
