I noticed that on the ftp development server, there isn't an ISO yet. Do
you have any plans or have you started on a graphical installer yet? If
so, what are you using as the base for the installer? Still planning on
using straight frame buffer device? Also (this is a personal interest) is
there going to be any support for dual headed devices, such as laptop
devices?
Just curious.

p.s. Anyone else interested in coming up with a program much like the
"object manager" program for PPC using JDBC drivers?
