        Hello,
I'd like to express thanks to GNUstep developers for their
continuing work; another ALT Linux Team member has embarked
on packaging it into our repositories, and I've been able to
prepare LiveCDs using WindowMaker and GNUstep packages so as
to provide convenient means for users to have a look at it.

The images are available here (scheduled for weekly builds):
http://nightly.altlinux.org/sisyphus/flavours/gnustep/

Here's the information on Regular Builds project:
http://en.altlinux.org/Regular

These aren't proper distributions (I maintain a dozen of those
and a rescue image so it's sort of hard to fine-tune each one)
still experienced users tend to strip off lots of the polish
that is pertinent to an end user distribution -- so why sweat
to add what's going to be stripped anyways? :)

Thus a barebone image is provided so those who install it can
customize on, and those who need to tweak the LiveCD can do so
by patching the distribution profile; the exact profile used
to build a particular image is included as .disk/profile.tgz
within the (CD/Flash, BIOS/UEFI) hybrid ISO -- those interested
are invited to ping me as most of mkimage docs are in Russian;
English translations are not a problem but obsolete docs
are evil as seasoned developers know.

PS: I'm not subscribed to the list, please CC: me too
(asking Greg to hopefully let this message through)
