More housecleaning and catching up.
Sorry for the delay, been busy with the RC's and 2.0 release.
But things are getting caught up....

Now posted in the Testing area of the repository:

Many thanks to all who contribute.

Haven't tested any yet, except for the ones I built, but wanted to mention something that was not in the info files.

Conky's default settings do not work in DSL, so one of the supplied rc files (or a user-created rc file) is needed for it to run. The Conky wrapper will copy one of the sample rc files to $HOME/.conkyrc if this file does not already exist. I edited a couple of the samples to remove or disable things that are not in DSL, but afterward discovered that there is still at least one that doesn't work. The "running processes" feature requires kernel 2.6, so this feature will always display zero in DSL.
