Re: General Debian Desktop Questions
Hi again,
I have got to remember to review my emails when I am awake. 'Debain' is
a horribly embarrassing typo. In any event I did find some answers to my
questions.

I am still foggy on this since according to http://www.debiandesktop.org
the project has become a CDD and will have it's own archive and what
not. This implies that it is no longer a subproject proper. Nice work on
the simplified logo though. :-)

Ok, I found out that I am missing something like six months of email
from this list. So I have a lot of reading to do. :-)

Ok, there appears to be a plan of sorts at
http://www.debiandesktop.org/concept.php and it looks pretty detailed.

Possibly Martin, but I haven't seen him post on the mail list for some
time. That said there has been a lot of general Debian work going on as
the project gets closer to a release.
If there are any other references I can review that would be great.
Thanks,
