Hey there.

 My wishlist for SuSE 6.0 at the moment:

  * TrueType support in X-Server (or easy integration)
  * Easy 'migration' of Windows fonts so they are available in X
  * Type1 and TrueType utilities for conversion, afm-generating, etc. (I
have put some of these in the Incoming dir a while ago)
  * Some way of getting StarOffice to actually use either TrueType fonts
or converted fonts and not just fall back to Times
  * The AWE utility set, and an integrated way to use them.

  * The eMusic MP3/MOD/etc. player in actually compilable form (I have
grave difficulties doing so -- I guess I would need GNOME 0.30 or later
to do it)
  * mpg123 and similar command-line players.
  * If possible, it would be neat with Wine-wrappers that could call
windows-programs with the right parameters set for 'smooth' operation.
This may be premature, though....
  * Webmin
  * I guess it's already in there, but: Easy Masquerading setups
  * As a extension of the above: The c-mserver and the various clients
to pick and choose from.
  * If you intend to stick with KDE 1.0 (and it *is* possible that KDE
1.1 won't be out, of course), could you include a late CVS-version that
will also compile for those of us who would like some of the extras they
include? The point here being 'compilable' ;)
  * The TrueType/Type1/(StarOffice) and Masquerade situation
mentioned/explained in the manual.
  * ICQ-clones such as GTKIcq and Licq (and that infamous 'play' program
Licq refers to, which I haven't yet been able to find)
  * A Mozilla snapshot? Qt and GTK versions?
  * As with KDE, a recent GNOME CVS-version that compiles in addition to
a stable one?
  * The FoX libraries and samples
  * The xkb_dk-1.0.tar.gz package available at ftp.sslug.dk (and
encouragement for others to do something similar for inclusion) - put
into a National/Native/Language group.

I think that's about it for now....
