They seem to have been discussing a package which actually had some use, though. My argument is simple. Having this package officially associated with the distro could conceivably offend *someone* - anyone - enough that they don't use Mandrake. Doesn't have to be lots of people, doesn't even have to happen, it's just conceivable. NOT having it officially associated with the package isn't going to stop anyone at all using Mandrake. Thus, on a purely commercial basis, the sensible decision is to have it in PLF, i.e., not officially associated with MDK. This isn't a moral crusade here. -- adamw
