Maybe that would be too drastic. After all, even if old and unmaintained, it's still Free Software. Perhaps we'd be better off breaking up the section of self-hosted distros into multiple sections, so that there could be one section for Live distros that are supposed to be used in read-only media and don't get updates, like dyne:bolic and Musix, and one for distros that are in need of contributors to issue newer releases and even updates like BLAG. The latter section would be the wake-up call, and if a distro remained too long in there, then it gets removed. It would also get users better information, and avoid giving users the idea that distros in the list are outdated just because they hit the one or two that really are. -- Alexandre Oliva, freedom fighter http://FSFLA.org/~lxoliva/ You must be the change you wish to see in the world. -- Gandhi Be Free! -- http://FSFLA.org/ FSF Latin America board member Free Software Evangelist|Red Hat Brasil GNU Toolchain Engineer
