Well if someone is collecting votes, I'll vote for the inclusion of nas! One of the primary reasons for still having several Windows boxes kicking around here where I work is that the Linux X-terminals are mute - amazing but true! I've considered installing nas to solve this problem, but I'm not keen on compiling kde myself.
What about a kdelibs-nas package which is a replacement for kdelibs? (An either/or thing.) Then it doesn't affect those who don't need it. Hmmm... Maybe I'll even give this a try myself when I have some extra time (maybe after Christmas?). Eric On Wed, Dec 05, 2001 at 05:25:47PM -0800, G.
