There is a "Help Wanted" section on SourceForge. We can try that.

You are certainly not the first to have noticed that fink's documentation
is inadequate.
Each time it comes up, the core fink developers seek volunteers from the
fink community to work on this. Perhaps people who don't have porting
skills but would like to help out.
So far, nobody is beating d
Another thing to keep in mind is support. Start charging money and people
assume they deserve support. Doesn't matter if it's just the cost of the
CD and shipping, there will be some who will expect to some major hand

but you;'d be using disk space that doesn't need to be so. at least not
for the bin dist since apt can get from cd.

No need to do this in C when Fink is already written in Perl, right?
Of course not -- not when we have Damien

LOL, wish it was that easy :-) Seriously, I don't think it's feasible
to make such a command without a lot of compromises. E.g.
First off, I'd like to keep the discussion regarding a Fink CD
completly free of mentioning OpenOSX. I don't feel such a CD should
be made to spite anybody, but if at all for it's own good. Anyway,
here are some quick thought of mine on this:
1) It will be very helpful to anybody with a not s

What about another commands for fink
- 'make-image ' for making ISO image(s) of the given distribution
- 'update-from ' for installing stuff from CD
Is that a bad idea?
I'm speaking for the lazy ones.

If I were making a fink CD, here is what I would do:
Make a package which uses the Apple installer to install a bunch of .deb
files into /sw/fink/debs and a bunch of source files into /sw/src,
after fink has been installed.
The advantage is that you don't have to have a high-bandwidth inte
