There is no point in having tasks which are mostly equivalent to "apt-get install something" and do not even provide something which immediately works for less technical users (who are the target audience of tasks). They do no help these users (even worse: they create false expectations) and can be immeditely recognized as a stupid waste of attention by everybody else. On Sep 08, "Jeremy T.

If we really have to appease the followers of the single CD install religion then at least we should provide a Gnome task for everybody else. -- ciao, Marco
