Ok. Agreed.
(sorry - I was thinking too much in the mindset of Skolelinux _not_
being Debian, because too much is currently derived for it to be).

Call it "suggest" if you like.
And remember to tell those africans being given a Skolelinux CD that
what they have is only a suggestion - the rest can be had off the Internet.
How to only "suggest" KDE over GNOME when the medium defined as a
criterium for the CDD barely leaves room for one of them?
(if your answer is that "distro space" is not a limiting factor, then
tell Skolelinux that their criteria are wrong).
