Wouldn't it be an idea to become none-GNOME specific? But instead a site for alternative SuSE specific packages? So everyone who has a SuSE-fied package which is not available from SuSE itself can provide you/ULB with this package... Just a thought ;-)
Keep up the good work!

I've been thinking about the future of usr local bin, whether to create a full GNOME install (probably starting with GNOME 2.4.0 when it comes out) for SuSE, or whether to just stick with doing the apps, and occasionally have to let versions lag as I wait for an updated SuSE release (as happened in the run-up to 8.2 with Gnumeric and AbiWord) when major things change under the hood.
My musings are in my latest Blog entry on www.rubberturnip.org.uk and I'd appreciate any thoughts people, especially those who already use the packages from my site, may have.
Thanks for your time guys, the great feedback I get has really kept the site going so far.

James - I'm with Harry. I don't use Gnome - only KDE - but I use Mozilla and Evolution, so always get your versions. Of course, the bottom line is that you have to do what pleases *you* (but I really hope you'll continue to do the apps). Thanks so much for all the work you've done so far.
