Hi unless someone has a *very* good reason (and is willing to do the work) we are planning to kick the tools/ directory from our mirrors, as well as the dftp*.gz files in project/misc. Reason: - They are useless nowadays. If someone wants to install Debian from a windows system they use some cd image. Or that goodbyemicrosoft.com tool. But i cant believe anyone is really downloading zipped files, extracting them with the tools we provide and then doing stuff with it. - dftp - look at the source. Might have been useful - before apt existed. Or it might have been the prototype for dselect or apt. :) If you want to keep any of them: "Adopt" them, meaning - upload a Debian package with the source, where one binary generated from it goes into the archive, another file (tar.gz, zip, whatever) is byhand and provides what should be in tools. And do that soon :) -- bye, Joerg <dilinger> i just managed to procrastinate an extra 30 mins by reading an article on how not to procrastinate
