Please find, for review, the debconf templates of ltsp.
This review will last from Friday, July 06, 2007 to Monday, July 16, 2007.
Please send reviews as unified diffs (diff -u) against the original
files. Comments about your proposed changes will be appreciated.
Your review should be sent as an answer to this mail.
When appropriate, I will send intermediate requests for review, with
"[RFRn]" (n>=2) as a subject tag.
When we will reach a consensus, I send a "Last Chance For
Comments" mail with "[LCFC]" as a subject tag.
Finally, the reviewed templates will be sent to the package maintainer
as a bug report, and a mail will be sent to this list with "[BTS]" as
a subject tag.

Description: LTSP display manager
ldm is an X11 display manager similar to xdm, gdm and kdm, but unlike
those it wraps the X11 traffic within an ssh tunnel to provide a
secure login mechanism for remote X sessions. ldm provides access
only through SSH, not locally. It is technically possible to use ldm
to connect to the same host, but probably a waste of CPU power.
