 That means that 50% will be left with an obsolete Telenet app and 50%
 will be left with an obsolete Belgacom app.. 

There could be 1 app with multiple plugins instead...   ;)

BTW: I wrote my own commandline telemeter app once; took me all of 5
lines of Python.  And that was 4 lines more than the 1-liner using curl
 sed that I made for the very old pre-telemeter traffic page...  :)

Hey,

just for the record... I looked into the pyTelemeter thingie. It doesn't 
work anymore and is no longer maintained. (it worked on the old 
Telemeter, but the new one has a new interface and/or constellation)


Anyways, even though it would be interesting, I don't think it's an 
option for the moment.


If someone would enjoy writing a lense or applications for mobile 
vikings - they offer an API :)


Grtz,
Jurgen.

You can read the whole report on the
wiki:https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/LocalizedCD/IsoMeeting

All of you who want to help are welcome. If you have any 'expertise' in
this field, feel free to drop your comments on the page or leave them on
the ML.

Also: I put the report under *BelgianTeam/LocalizedCD/IsoMeeting* but
now I'm thinking about it, wouldn't
*BelgianTeam/PastMeetings/IsoMeeting* be a better place?

we already talked about that lense..
Yet, I believe that it's not a good idea to install them by default:let's say 
Telenet and Belgacom both have 50% of the market.
That means that 50% will be left with an obsolete Telenet app and 50% will be 
left with an obsolete Belgacom app..
However, I do think it would be a nice addition to the repo's (for starters 
because I would love a Telenet and Mobile Vikings app).
Maybe we can throw a hack/code/.. day :D(I'm really starting to like the way 
things go in hackerspaces..)

 software I use:


   - [[http://uck.sourceforge.net/] Ubuntu Customization Kit - add default
   NL/FR language packs - Kde/Gnome/other - ubuntu-11.04-desktop-i386.iso
   - systeem-beheer-opstartschijf maken; choose iso ; choose
   destination


UCK allows you to add several packages and languages but I haven't yet
managed to get it to use azerty keyboard at boot...  but it will be in
Dutch and offer French/German/English support By default it will be
classic ubuntu if used as a live usb but once installed on harddisk the
unity interface will be default.
You can add more packages as ubuntu by default doesn't support mp3, divx,
flash... doesn't offer a nice dual boot switch... nor a paint program to
edit your screenshots... It does however by default contain libreoffice...
but no parted?

I've noticed that a 64bit iso will not allways boot nice on all systems so I
also state a 32bit should be used for maximum compatibility...

I've been using 1gbyte sticks laying arround...
opstart schijf maken doesn't do any verification check so it seems... out
of 4 writes 2 didn't boot well and required a new copy process
perhaps DD is better used to write the custom iso?

Some sticks were slow... I guess newer/recent usb sticks are faster...
a usb disc can't be compared to an SSD in matter of speed... although both
are flash based?

Both are flash memory-based, but SSDs use striping (comparable to RAID
0) over lots of memory chips to multiply the speed.
