I use YDL 2.3 on my iBook and Red Hat on my desktop.  I have had to
revert back from RH 8.0 to use RH 7.3.  I like RH 8.0 but several
softwares I use have bugs related to Gnome2.  I have had various
problems with Bluefish, GRAMPS and Win4Lin on RH 8.0.

I am eager to see YDL progress, but it looks like I am not in a hurry!

BTW, I am planning to take advantage of your $89.95 TDL.net special when
YDL 3.0 is released... hint... hint... ;^)

What would you like to see in 3.0? Are there a things that are not included that you would like? Is 2.3 starting to feel out of date? How many people want KDE 3.1? What about the latest GNOME and GTK2? What about catagories as in multimedia and such? Would you like to see more packages in the contrib section of apt? I am was thinking that an online package database would be nice. Like the one that the fink project uses.

Then people can add packages to the unstable until they get approved but while they are being tested other people as in us can test them out too. I think that this would be the best way to get flush out packages avaible to the yellow dog distro.
