Wow, Shaggy, very impressive! Great work!
@ Jerry regarding target audience:
Were best to have a dialog about this? Am happy to re-post, don't want to hijack this dev talk.
I do hear you and know Windows users and new folks to Linux, but not existing Linux users are the target audience. Would really like to know/discuss why NOT for existing Linux users - AS LONG AS it doesn't chase away new users? Linux Lite is an outstanding distribution and of course I do hope Windows user switching to it will be so impressed that they stay with it which means they are ultimately "existing Linux users" I can't see it as desirable to loose them. As much as I agree and support having a distribution like Linux Lite specifically for new users/ Windows converts, I don't see it as contradiction to also serve existing users. The challenge such a distribution needs to master in addition to "normal" distributions is providing a smooth transition. Linux Lite is one of the best, if not currently the best providing this smooth transition. Let's attract many more Windows users AND keep them By keeping it light and simple and smart
