Hi Koko and everyone,
I'm still in. Because of other work, the time i can put into BLAG might be variable, but i should be able to do a fair share. Right now working on some propositions for wallpapers, basic graphics, etc. Hope to have some ready this week. Not very experienced with packaging, but should be able to cope without making too much fuss;)

Regarding a switch to CentOS i have no strong objections. However, even if we stay with Fedora there is no need to build a new BLAG for every Fedora release. Jebba would skip a final release if he didn't think the Fedora base was good enough to make a stable BLAG. Also i think a fairly up-to-date base might attract more new users.

But I think that with 4 or 5 well motivated people, we could still achieve something : the repo is more or less ready, the rest is just about theming and packaging software. So if anyone is motivated, make me know.

Maybe working with CentOS would help, spending more time inspecting the repos, writing doc etc.
