1. Euphoria & Ubuntu

I must confess. I am not really a fan of Unbuntu Linux.

Yet, its seems that every where I look a new flavor of
Ubuntu pops up - There's Ubuntu for Gnome, Kubuntu for KDE,
and now Xubuntu for the XFCE Desktop.  Currently I'm using
Fluxbox, a barebones window manager - I bet pretty soon
there will be a Flubuntu distribution for Fluxbox.

Considering the problems that have been reported regarding
the installation of Euphoria on Ubuntu it might be 
worthwhile for Rob to try and fine tune Euphoria's 
installation under Ubuntu.  I guess he could call it Eubuntu.
Or, for the the XFCE desktop, EXUbuntu.  smile

I'm pretty sure that my debian package of Euphoria would work pretty well on
ubuntu.

You claim that life is good without MS yet you complain about support for
various flavors of Linux.  How is it really?

Its really good, Brian.

My point was that since Ubuntu appears to be such a popular distribution,
perhaps RDC should officially provide for an easy installation of Euphoria.
I suppose Rob could just document Alexander Torreson's Debian installation
package.

Thanks to Alexander Torreson for providing the Debian installation package
too!
