Would it be opening up a can of worms to revisit the discussions from last August relating biobrew to rocks? They seem to be going the way you wanted with your neurobiomathphygeobrew idea ... a base rock install and then various rolls. Have you given any thought to creating a Rocks BioRoll in addition to/instead of biobrew? Does it make sense for you and Dan to discuss options that biolinux has chosen and allow those as options on a FE install? I'm just asking because I see all three projects as being very valuable to the research community and would love it if everyone played together in a fashion that allowed us to easily benefit from _all_ of your hard work -- instead of just some of it as might be the case if we don't have the expertise/time to sort and merge ourselves. Of course I can completely understand that if building a whole distro is more interesting to you than just a chunk I would rather there were too many choices than too few. Oh yeah, and thanks to Dan and Glen -- Chris Beck / Y.A.B.A. / Fungal Genomics CFSG / Concordia University "La loi dans sa majestueuse égalité, interdit à tous, aux riches comme aux pauvres de dormir sous les ponts, de coucher dans la rue et de voler du pain." -- Anatole France (Les Lys Rouge - 1894)
