I will post one: http://toucharcade.com/2009/09/16/me...ting-goodness/

Perhaps there is a reason why linux in general is still in the gutter? Perhaps there is a reason a fully featured device takes off in 2 years and Nokia tablets crash and burn? Hey, what do I know, I am sure people will go crazy over some msn plugin that sort of works years later

So what is there worth installing in the repos as of today that is not in beta, alpha or any other testing stage?

proftpd is fully ported and optified - can be installed with no impact to rootfs other than 1 doc file. Rar is still not optified but is out there.

Ok thats my two ports - now lets list your contributions .... *crickets chirping*.

Now onto things that are worth installing.

Hrmm Claws email reader springs to mind, especially given the constant *****ing about the email client. Xournal and conboy both great note taking apps. Kplayer has just been optified and can be used with both gstreamer and mplayer backend giving those people with issues playing media an alternative.... I could go on - but the fact is you don't care. You are just one of those people who would complain their arse was cold if they started crapping gold nuggets.

Im out
