[arch-dev-public] Ion Announcement
Just a quick review for me guys, I'm deleting ion today.. ----------------- Today I have removed the Ion Window manager from the official aArchlinux repositories. My initial thought was to keep the package inside it's license, but after further consideration, we the developers of Archlinux have decided that this is non-free software and will not be provided in our official repositories. ----------------- Sound good? -- . : [ + carpe diem totus tuus + ] : .

I don't see why we need to make an announcement per se.. But if we do.. you have an extra 'a' in the first "Archlinux". If it were me, would reword it a bit... ####### Today I have removed the Ion Window manager from the official Archlinux repositories. My initial thought was to keep the package updated in compliance with its unique license. However, the license has proven to be a burnedsome. As such, the developers of Archlinux have decided that that it will not be provided in our official repositories. #######

aArchlinux sounds terrible! "keep the package inside it's license" is unclear... maybe "keep the package updated within the timelimit specified by the license" also "we the developers of Archlinux" -> "we, the developers of Archlinux," (haha commas!)
