Hey Jonathan,

I like YDL quite a bit. I think 2.3 is starting to feel a bit dated and
additional packages in contrib for both 2.3 and 3.0 would be a good thing.
Although with 3.0 not out yet, it's hard to say what I'd like to see 
which isn't included. I'm looking forward to 3.0 which hopefully will be 
out soon. Is the YDL website redesign an omen? :). I know there are updates
I'd like to have available (tcl/tk 8.4, mysql 3.2.55. etc) but these very
well may be included in 3.0 when released. I think rpms for KDE 3.1 and
Gnome 2.2 for YDL 2.3 would be nice. I installed 3.1 on my Wallstreet with
konstruct, which aside from the compile time was pretty painless. The more
updated packages available the better. I'm willing to help how I can and
as time allows.

Ken
