Kevin, I'm still on the list, but just to check progress. I share your thoughts. I think Brian has the right idea, ie, base new releases of gNS on Gobuntu, as it's possible that they will be a little more free then the main release, such as Gutsy.
I also wish the guys at Gobuntu the best of luck, but think they are perhaps compromising their objectives. conversely, they'd probably argue that gNS is too militant in it's beliefs....sort of like the way Debian was perceived, some years ago. Cheers, Chris. On 12/10/2007, Kevin Dean <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I've removed myself from the Gobuntu-devel mailing list. Quite > frankly, gNewSense is more aimed at freedom.
