Hi!
I removed Javier and Treacy from Cc-list for I know that they are on the
list, but I'm not sure about Raphael. Gee, I wish everyone would use
Mail-Followup-To: headers ,-)

I would also say keep 'em. We also keep the hamm pages, don't we? The
idea about seperating the active distros from the historical is a good
one, though.
One thing that bugged me a little bit when I translated the file is the
part about Demolinux. While translating it I got the impression that I
am writing about Knoppix. They also changed from a different
distribution to Debian, I think even at the same version number. Is
this demolinux really not just a rip off from Knoppix? Is it real, is
it it's own? While reading that part I can't really believe this....
Well, that said, the part about "probably the best distribution to use
if you want to just give Linux a try" -- don't get me wrong but I guess
Knoppix is just as good. Did anyone try both and compared them
somewhere? I am not really sure if we should propose Demolinux over
Knoppix (or the other way round), IMHO we shouldn't take a position in
that decision.
Just a thought,
Alfie
