Hi Tony,That sounds reasonable, especially if we want to keep them as discreet projects. If Andreas would be willing to set this up that would be great.
As far as I can tell from the Debian documentation and what we've discussed, the complete set of Bio-Linux tasks would simply be Tim's original package list, divided into desktop and server tasks. I would ask your preference on whether we would use the reduced list I created which only has packages in sid (although this has some issues with virtual packages) or the compete set. I know that the documentation states the latter, but I don't know if all of the packages are still useful to Bio-Linux. As for separating Bio-Linux server and client packages, I can go through Tim's packages and try and create a list of packages for a server task for review.

Personally I don't think that having the name med-bio-linux-desktop would be an issue, since, as far as I'm aware the package will be mainly distributed from within the bio-linux iso, through download, usb and cd.Hi, William. I think it is an issue, because I'd like to install "bio-linux-desktop" on an existing Ubuntu/Debian system using: apt install bio-linux-desktop I'd also like "bio-linux server", so the server-side can be removed from the desktop. In principle I'd like to install everything using: apt install bio-linux As you can install all of "med-bio" using: apt install med-bio Bye, Tony.
