the dselect debate

[Chris Dion <chris@newpublishing.com>]

I'm new to both Linux in general and the debian distribution
specifically. I found that dselect, though awkward at first, was rather
easy to use and quite powerful.  That's not to say that the interface
couldn't be improved somewhat.  Is work on dselect ongoing, and is the
source available? If so, I'd like to take some of the suggestions and
concerns voiced on this list and have a go at improving the tool. 
That's assuming my programming skills are up to the task ; )


Thanks in advance,

Chris Dion
