| possibly others as well).
|
| The ideas are:
|
| First time install wizard/config wizard:
|         -Walks through initial configuration/includes explanations
|         -More Timezones
|         -Pretty-fied to me more user friendly
| GUI package manager
|         -One that functions(doesn't crash when trying to install more than
| one package)
|         -Maybe w/ opkg
| GUI installation tool(from NAND?)
|         -For ease of install
|         -Is this possible?
| GUI network config(smart)
|         -Only configures interfaces it detects, non-generic
|         -Easy for beginners, so as not to get confused
|
|
| Any feedback would be appreciated. I don't know if this is functionality
| Angstrom is looking for, but it's what I came up with.

Thanks for the ideas, could you add them to the wiki?

Now onto the orginazational side of things:

Which organizations are going to apply for GSoC? Openmoko, OE, Angstrom
come to mind. And who of those organizations will be the GSoC dude? And
who will mentor the students?

regards,

Koen
