So the initial burst made a smallish dent, but there's still a lot more to do, which I'd like to get to this weekend. If anyone want to help out, that'd be great. In addition, please voice your opinions about a few things (I haven't heard a lot of developers talk about this, so I've left it alone:
* Move desktop related stuff to extra? (possibly keep only xorg in current?) Yes. (Not sure if xorg will belong to Core, so probably move xorg to extra too)
* Move wireless/network modules to current? (they're that important IMO) depends on Core decission (which was done on DevMeeting, but no pkglist agreed yet)
* Rename current to "core" ? YESSSS!!! http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Core_Packages
So we've actually defined what core packages are? I just want to make sure so we don't start fighting over what goes in and what doesn't.
I haven't heard input. I'm going to run with the "no news is good news" adage. The core thing won't happen for a bit though, as it's a bit more complex than everything else, but I figure if we can move non-core packages out of current, the rename will be fairly easy.
