Re: [Vectorlinux-devel] Dynamite 5.9.8.16 release

[Sriram D. <sri...@gm...>]

1) Should we plan to not have too much gap between Standard and SoHo ?
 and also have a way to dist upgrade from std to SoHo ?

[ Tongue in cheek] there were too many releases in the last two weeks for
the time i could commit, so if somethign was fixed in one of the releases
please excuse me.

Also should we plan on limiting the number of releases? so that we can spend
more time on testing and less on installing?
[ end tongue in cheek]

2) I have a Short List myself: [ some of these are based on feedback i got
after a few newbies had a free ride on my system for a while, in presence
ofcourse ]

1 PDF is associated with firefox by default
    xpdf does not work, [ some library missing ]
    it is not easy to change which application opens it by default.

2. No Calculator button by default, this is a bummer. my wife could not find
out how to launch it from the command line by herself  and got frustrated
and wanted me to change to SOHO

3. Windows key or CTRL +ESC does not access the start menu.

4. File ->  Send To in Gnumeric did not work [ message is : no default
handler for Mailto ]

Cheers
Ram
