That's bad news; I hope you've checked with a number of specialists on that, since it's rare that two agree with one another.

John has agreed in principal for a 2.6 tiny core. But doing so, means we need to have an improved searching ability for the required addons (extensions). Therefore, my attempt to provide an SQL interface to the mydsl extensions.

- agreed that would be nice, but could we help with some early testing without the SQL interface?

Robert,
 I hate to hear of what you are going through, and my prayers are with you.

Thanks for all the kind words, thoughts, and prayers. What I have is genetic and currently no treatment available.
I don't let it get me down. I will continue as I can. It just means it will be less than before.

I am looking at other foundations for the next base. Instead of hacking Knoppix or some other distro, I am looking to build up or even script build up. There are several foundations available.

DSL v3.x will no longer have maintenance releases. I cannot continue to increase my workload. As it is, v3.x is maxed out at 50MB.

As I wrote v4.x will continue but on a much slower schedule. I currently have one staged for release.

The SQL thing is not just for searching. It is to also consolidate the web html tables. The html tables will be a by product of having an sqlite database of extensions. Currently the html tables are built via an ugly awk program that I wrote and wish I hadn't.

So bottom line, I am looking into a new base for DSL.
