</a><br><br></span>Hello<br>
<div><div>nice list, a good start for the debate :)<br>
<br>
Regarding gnome dependencies, firefox in breezy no longer has them (1.0.7)<br>
while those that have need to be studied on a case by case basis.Gaim and synaptic only indirectly<br>
depend on gnome for instance, because they use launchpad-integration, but this will hopefully be solved before<br>
long. As for recompiling, it would be better if we used the exact same
packages as ubuntu and not make separate debs for xfce. Hopefully it
can be done.<br>
</div>Maybe the list should be smaller initially, let's focus on what
users not developers need.This way we can postpone the vi/emacs battles
to when we have done more work ;)<br>
We should have a core set of apps with no gnome dependencies and then
let users install their favorite kde/gnome apps if they so wish, but
the default should be slim.<br>
<br>
Why mozilla if there's firefox already?<br>
As a mail client, thunderbird or sylpheed?<br>
