Thanks for the url to the portable apps especially. Obviously i will install native Linux versions of software if possible first, but if there is no linux version then i have no problem including progs that run on wine, after all its a nice test to see if your wine is working and also good to showcase just how well linux can run some windows apps.cthisbear wrote:"free Windows apps"

Chris.
Expanding on this subject i am considering including a windows version of one of the popular web browsers for the express purpose of messing with websites that track the kind of OS you are using, the browser and the screen resolution etc. I spose some people would appreciate that, most wouldnt.
I will also try to isolate some of the more interesting network tools from the Backtrack OS that could lend themselves to be shoehorned into Pussy. I dont know the specific licensing of those apps, and also there is a difference between installing them on Pussy and configuring them correctly.
This brings me to another point, i was wanting to do the DVD version of Pussy in one release and be done with it, however due to the sheer enormity (ie, the number of packages being added) of the project, it looks as tho there will be 2 releases. One will be an early release that simply includes all the new apps, and the final release will make sure that all these new apps are working correctly and configured correctly and with default settings made to default itself to settings that will be practical for the type of desktop environment etc that is being used.
The USB .img image wont be made available for the first release but it will be made available for the final release. Depending on the final size of the end product, the USB .img version may end up being an image for 8GB USB sticks/ SD cards and not for the smaller 4GB ones. This is because the DVD size im hoping to work to is 4.3GB or something... whatever it is that fills a DVD-R. 4GB USB sticks are smaller than a DVD and the working space of most of them is more like 3.8GB rather than 4GB. The 8GB USB stick image will have persistence enabled and a function in the catroll-panel that deletes the save file and creates a new one so that the USB stick can be restored to default settings.
