Hi houghi, I think, "repositories" ist the best word for it, but "installation sources" is acceptable and understandable by(to?) most of the users. Only "sources" or "YaST sources" is wrong, I will always think of source code on these terms. -- mdc - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

And I dont think it is bad to differ between yast sources, apt repositories and yum whatevers. Unless you can add the same directory with the same path in all three of them.

If you call it sources in Yast and repository on websites, this WILL lead to confusion. Consistency is very importand in how clear something is to people who do not know what is going on. Not everybody has English as a main languange (I am not even saying first) and will understand the word repository. More people will understand source.

Actually repository is the correct word for YaST "sources". Calling them sources is a bit ambiguous.

I am thinking about how to do the fact that it is on mirrors and might be different on each one. This is what stpped me from adding the 'normal' sources in a better way. I am still not happy with the word "repositories" and am thinking of a page: YaST_sources (To be sure, is it Yast, YaST or YAST?) What are your opnions on the word "repositories"? The reason I like "Source" better is because it is used in Yast and will be less confusing for the beginner if only one word is used. This should include standard Yast, Yum, Aditional Yast and apt. An other way might be to have seperate pages for Yast, Yum and apt wich is perhaps a better approach. On such a page more detail can be given and as long as links to the other pages are given, it should be fine. houghi -- Quote correct (NL) http://www.briachons.org/art/quote/ Zitiere richtig (DE) http://www.afaik.de/usenet/faq/zitieren Quote correctly (EN) http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I guess it's something for the http://www.opensuse.org/Additional_YaST_Package_Repositories page, or a more generic "Package repositories for SUSE Linux" page.
