Hi Alasdair!


This all sounds very interesting.

> 1. Primary compiler will be GCC 4.4, with 4.5 and 4.6 support (4.5 for compat with S11)
> 2. OpenSSL 1.0
> 3. OpenJDK
> 4. Updated Firefox & Thunderbird
> 5. Updated Python & Ruby
> 6. Latest Apache, lighttpd, nginx, PHP, MySQL and Postgresql packages
> 7. Chromium
> 8. VirtualBox open source edition

9. Thorougly document the entire process of contributing on the
   userland level so that people interested in packaging specific
   applications, libraries etc. but without sufficient time to
   master the entire system still have a chance to join.

Yes, that describes me. :-)


Best regards -- Volker
