        there is a lightweight Trisquel meta package in the current repos
called "trisquel-mini".  it can be installed after an installation, but
i do not know what it actually installs.  however, a mini install USB
image would be a nice addition.

        hay una versión ligera de peso en el depósito llamado trisquel-mini,
aunque yo no estoy seguro lo que instala.  querría una manera de
instalar un Trisquel "mini" o "ligero" de un palo USB también.

        great idea, and i would like to add support for realtime multimedia
(audio/video).  not a whole separate version, but perhaps a rt-kernel
and associated packages, or a meta-package.  i am still learning about
building packages on GNU+Linux, so i cannot offer much help right now.

        gran idea, y yo querrían agregar apoyo para el realtime multimedia
(audio/video).  no un total separa versión, pero quizás un dcha-meollo y
paquetes asociados, o un meta-paquete.  yo todavía aprendo acerca de
paquetes de edificio en el ÑU + Linux, así que yo no puedo ofrecer mucha
ayuda en este momento.
