Hello all members, which (except for Beholder) I have not had the
opportunity to meet yet.

I am sending Beholder a layout suggestion this very minute. Let's see how
you like it.

My email program can both view and generate mails in HTML, but myself I'll
stick to the usual, nonformatted way...

So anyone can join the list and get all mails? I thought you could change
that.

I guess he's thinking of me... :) No, I find it hard to believe that a
system that is GOOD for everyone can be constructed... it doesn't sound
resonable. But I could be wrong...

Let me bring up an important topic: What properties are priorited in UniOS.

This is my alpha version priority list:
Primary goals: (implemented from the beginning)
1) Technically generic and good solutions
2) Flexibility/Portability
3) Stability
4) Security

Secondary goals: (implemented as time goes by)
5) Performance
6) Easy administration
7) Ease of use

Nice to have, but not that important: (maybe implemented)
8) Small size
9) Easy installation

I've probably missed some important things... I'm sure you can fill in the
gaps.
Note that I have put performance as no more than a secondary goal... I
think that could be something that not everybody agrees on.

C'ya later!
