Future AL review on distrowatch ?

Hi,

I just was browsing distrowatch.com and came across
http://www.distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20030630
You really should search that page for "Arch" :-) ....

Personally, I think, however, that a non-biased person should do such a review.

That's cool and all, except for that last guy's comment.  As of 6-30-2003, he says arch doesn't include evolution, open office, galeon, and a lot of gnome stuff.  We do work very hard to have gnome apps working... and open office as well.  I suppose it doesn't really help telling you guys, but I hate the spread of mis-information.

I think the problem is the tracking list on

http://www.distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=arch

which - for some reason - does not have gnome. And since Openoffice, evolution and galeon are in unoffical, they are probably also omitted from that list.

I've corrected the problem by including your unstable tree + current tree in the Arch page on DistroWatch. If you still find any errors, please complain loudly :-)
