Very interesting! I have followed your site's links through several different sites but I am a little confused as to what you have actually done. My impressions are 3 things, possibly all in one, possibly not: * a simplified standard Unix directory tree, which combines /bin & /sbin & /usr/bin & /usr/sbin all into /bin and maybe more besides * a new package manager which may or may not be yours, which handles (?) Gobo-style appdirs * some way of building a Slackware install entirely in a big RAMdisk So is the overall plan a simplified traditional Unix tree _plus_ appdirs for user-facing applications, is that it? -- Liam Proven • Profile: http://lproven.livejournal.com/profile Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk • GMail/G+/Twitter/Flickr/Facebook: lproven MSN: lpro...@hotmail.com • Skype/AIM/Yahoo/LinkedIn: liamproven Tel: +44 20-8685-0498 • Cell: +44 7939-087884 _______________________________________________ gobolinux-devel mailing list gobolinux-devel@lists.gobolinux.org http://lists.gobolinux.org/mailman/listinfo/gobolinux-devel
