Please do explain why. My opinion is: this is necessary to provide good information on how to install last stable. Why? For newcomers to GNU/Linux the idea of a central package manager is something they do not imagine until someone reveals them it is the preferred way. I will not try to give here the reasons why this situation. Fact is some people will search the web for binaries to install, just like they did using Windows. Ekiga.org should point to how to proceed installing binaries just to take care of those people. Both for efficiency and educational purpose. Still, I do agree this page a big rework... It indeed will benefit from distro documentation for up-to-date and more comprehensive informations about how to do that. But, I will not pay much attention to that right now: our websites are too much uncooperative each other. I think the best to do is to integrate all of them using something like drupal (it is my plan...) and as I do not code atm, feel free to do as you want. > > - remove completely Compile ekiga (well, we can move the uninstallation > part to Compile pages), because this info is already in > "Compile your own SVN version of Ekiga on Ubuntu (step-by-step)" and the > others (for Linux, FreeBSD, Windows). > Indeed. As a general guideline, i'm asking to reduce the amount of pages as we will need to move all this to another backend. PS. sorry for the lag...
