- Added Luis, Dave and joe from Ximian to p.SuSE. Will switch it's location
to
planetsuse.org real soon.
- Offer of help from Luis on the GST/SuSE integration work, it's been on a
serious backburner recently, but I finally got round to taking a hard copy
of my b0rked GST::Users code so I can read it more easily and try to debug
it.
Finally, YaST is going to be GPL. Some of us have wanted this for a long time,
and it used to be an occasional topic of hot discussion when I was at SuSE, but
it was never seriously on the cards back then. It's terrific news that this
is happening. I don't believe that the fears of a thousand SuSE clones
appearing like Red Hat clones will come true, but actually, it will benefit
in the same way that other GPL software does, more people will use it, hack on
it and test it seriously. YaST is already a great config tool (although,
obviously GST with a decent SuSE backend will also rock), it will only get
better now.
