by Simoncini, Matthew

If someone burns copies of this CD (including newbie stuff) and brings copies to the next WLUG Meeting, I'd pay for the cost of one.

>I'm not sure what would be considered the "top" perl modules. if you goto >cpan.perl.org they've got like 3000 perl modules to choose from... Well, they do list web stats there. I took a look at the search hits for 2001, grabbed the top 300 and from that, pulled only those for explicit modules, which yielded the below list of 54 in descending order of search-hit popularity (sorry Chip, I used awk to build it, not perl - guess ya can't teach this old dog new tricks. :-) Unfortunately, I'm not able to pull together a tarball tonight or attend Saturday, so if anyone else want's to take a stab... ...Oh well, thought so, still it is an interesting list nonetheless....

How about xscreensaver + all the plugins. cdparanoia + lame is a must (forget if that was metnioned or not). For coolnes i'm a big fan of Xplanet for my wallpaper. Maybe Blender for those 3d Artists, although i doubt many people woudl use it. I hear curl is pretty cool. A whole art section would actually be nice. The GIMP/Blender/xv. While these come with most distros, it's nice to just have a central place for them. A X11 true type fontserver + fonts would be nice. HOWTO's upto ying-yang too. Just a list off the top of my head.

Tim, Star Office 6.0 isn't downloadable right now, but Open Office is. And the latest build of Open Office is actually further along in development than the 6.0 beta; I'd include that on any "killer apps" cd for sure.

I'm not sure what would be considered the "top" perl modules. if you goto cpan.perl.org they've got like 3000 perl modules to choose from...

Alsa drivers, stable and development Kernel 2.4.17 rdesktop (lets you access windows 2000 terminal services) TightVNC (client and server) + docs UltraMaster RS101 StarOffice 5.2 (6.0 isn't available anymore...)
