BL added to DistroWatch

hhh · 2016-05-06 20:57:59

A recent issue of DW Weekly mentioned that they were planning to reorganize their distribution "Waiting List". That is starting to happen and we have been been moved off the waiting list and into "Active Distributions", complete with our own page...

Cheers!

That sounds like you are happy about it?

hhh · 2016-05-06 21:06:44

And, yeah, I'm not angry about it! I sent Jessie an email 6 months ago and now we're on DW, I think it's pretty cool.

Is that package list up-to-date?

brontosaurusrex · 2016-05-06 21:09:01

All great then

hhh · 2016-05-06 21:11:04

Plus, we're at the bottom of the popularity list. Nowhere to go but up!

It looks right, yad, obmenu and all the gstreamer plugins are in there.

What happened to the several-year-waiting-list-unless-you-cough-up-200US thing? Did their policy change, or do you have an "in" via this Jessie person?

Does this mean we can spend the $200 on ferrets?

hhh · 2016-05-06 21:25:05

I thought you wanted a pony.

Boom, pony reference in 11 posts.

@damo, the full package list they link is correct. The summary is a little screwy, it detects the correct Iceweasel version but lists it as Firefox.

Torrent downloads seem to be running about 10 per hour ATM, according to my conky feed

hhh · 2016-05-06 23:10:00

I sent Jessie a thank you email and a link to our "Stable" release announcement and I've already received a reply that we are popular with their readers and he plans to review us next month.

Oddly enough, I just did a post on the five lowest-ranked distros on DistroWatch. This was before BL was added--which is ironic given that I now have BL installed on two machines. :-)

Gawd that blog is gorgeous.
