This just in from the "I should have been working on the FAQ" dept.!  

I have created 2 new .dsl's.

they are:

Skype (VoIP client)
-skype.dsl

Mozilla Sunbird 0.2a (Calendar)
sunbird_0.2a.dsl

only trick is, you have to use sudo mydsl-load for them to work right.

i will be hosting these on my DSL BetaFTPd server in a bit, (be kind, i have not a lot of bandwidth) and will be sending them via email in a bit.

Just gotta find the address to send them too...

Perhaps you weren't aware, so I thought I'd ask you ?
There is a "skype.tar.gz" in the testing area..
Does your skype offer any different features from the one in testing?

I'm looking forward to seeing the sunbird program ..

Let us know ..
With 2000+ users, you might be in for a surprise - bandwidth wise..

I was unaware of the skype in the testing area. I used the version with Qt 3.2 already compiled in it. Do you know if the other guy did the same?

But, my version works quite well, if the mic on your soundcard is recognized, anyway.

and as for hosting it myself, the server went down rather quickly.

i think maybe 5 people actually got one downloaded.

i will email them in a bit.

okay, i sent in the sunbird .dsl, but not the skype one, since there is one already.

gmail was actin funny, but i think that only one attempt went through, but if more than one got through, make sure to md5sum it.

here is the correct md5sum (from md5test.exe on windoZzz)

MD5File('C:\Install Programs\ISO Images\DSL 0.8.0\sunbird_0.2a.dsl') =
  83c8fe5c69c382b06ab942794b7254f2

enjoy.

Send your skype file as well..
If it is different, or has additional features, no harm in having two..
