Hi,
I'm not sure I'm on the correct list here.
I'm trying to setup a customized CD for future installations on a large
number of computers. During the installation, I'll have no network, so I
can only depend on CD.

I think it's ok to facilitate the purchase of codecs to watch content
from the non-free world, but why is the video on the site in a
non-free format?

If you want to work to make sure that open codecs become more widely
adopted, then you should start providing

I was a Banshee user for about 9 months or so. That ended a year ago.
Unless it's changed, Banshee only recognizes songs you have imported. It
does not monitor directories for new songs, and especially not recursively.

another distro to use. Such a shame...

And there goes another reason why such proposals and suggestions
should be replaced with nice, cute, understandable feature sheet aka
HIG or LSB. People don't like removed features and it should be taken
into account. And it is better to fix application than propose new

Is there any interest in creating that kind of LSB for desktop

it would help desktop testing a lot and would help with priorities in

You know, I mostly agree with this viewpoint. (I should also point out

Hey Remco,

I do have some problems with this but it can not be solved by limiting

Good read, and more elegantly put than the way I said it. One most
look beyond the ultimate goal of total freedom of software and be
pragmatic. Technically, one must follow the law, and proprietary
codecs are too widely used to ignore.
Mark very well summed it up, I need not go on.

Not sure if this is the correct forum for this, but dpkg-buildpackage
