I buy every major release of YDL. just on general principles. CS 1.2
seems like a permanent fixture in my CD drive. They're not that
expensive $24 for the 1.2 set. Hope you guys make at least some money
off that.

I'm eagerly awaiting the next release and wonder what it will contain.

I'd be happy if it had Xfree 4.01, kde2, KOffice, Netscape> 4.76, Linux
2.4, Xchat 1.6 , Open Motif

Sooner or later, the cable company will come through with some real
bandwith around here. Being stuck in 28,800 bps/ZipDrive Sneakernet
limbo makes you think up ideas like this:

    It would also be cool to be able to get a cd monthly with the
latest sources of the following things:

    Xfree
    Kde
    KOffice
    Linux ppc development kernel sources
    Linux ppc stable kernel sources
    Open Motif
    Mesa
    Other goodies...

Just say no to packages: *-src.tar.gz forever! - Except on distros
maybe...
