 Sorry! This site is experiencing technical difficulties.

Try waiting a few minutes and reloading.

(Cannot contact the database server)


Unless we're talking about another site?

My dear friend, I'm afraid you didn't see my point yet. What I was 
trying to explain is, we need to build a strong Wiki and Doc for our 
project NOT only system-wise but community-wise as well. By community I 
mean we write the most important steps and keep that saved somewhere. 
I'm looking for a unique experience with this project. Not sure if you 
are starting to see my point yet or not?

I wasn't referring to any applications as that is system-wise doc/wiki 
task. I was referring to the other side of the coin where most if not 
all the FOSS project don't really focus on that part.

While this is not yet final but as far as I can tell, Synaptic and the 
Terminal are the only 'default' methods any ToriOS users will find to 
deal with the system and build his/her own system.
