+<PRE>Le 2010-11-01 00:20, andre999 a &#233;crit :
+
+&gt;<i> It seems we're approaching a consensus.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I'm also beginning to see a convergence here ... with the XDG menu
+</I>&gt;<i> system used by Mandriva.
+</I>&gt;<i> We probably want to keep the installation choices somewhat simpler.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> So I see the installation, after the language selection (of one or more
+</I>&gt;<i> languages), continuing with the choice of the desktop environment.
+</I>&gt;<i> I would have KDE / Gnome / Other (which expands to show the others
+</I>&gt;<i> available) / or none (for console only)
+</I>&gt;<i> With an &quot;information&quot; button to give the implications, including the
+</I>&gt;<i> fallback light desktops for KDE and Gnome.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> After that, a dialog for the activity categories, which would have
+</I>&gt;<i> default application selections corresponding to the desktop environment
+</I>&gt;<i> chosen.
+</I>&gt;<i> We could preselect certain categories to make it easier for users who
+</I>&gt;<i> don't want to bother choosing.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> We list the categories, each of which is expandable to show any
+</I>&gt;<i> sub-categories, and further to show the individual applications, for
+</I>&gt;<i> more detailed selection/deselection.
+</I>&gt;<i> Particularly useful for more advanced users.
+</I>&gt;<i> The advantage of this is we can have something suitable for all types of
+</I>&gt;<i> users, without requiring configuration or non-intuitive choices.
+</I>&gt;<i> Those who want quick easy choices, and those - like myself - who want to
+</I>&gt;<i> fine-tune which packages are installed in one pass.
+</I>&gt;<i> Required packages such as libraries should probably remain hidden,
+</I>&gt;<i> although they would be visible as now in Rpmdrake after the installation.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> - Andr&#233;
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>
+Yes, this is it. So, all that we would have left to organise is (in
+consultation with the Mageia membership and its expert opinion on this):
+
+* make a list of categories and sub-categories
+* for each &quot;tag-able&quot; list, create a list of appropriate software
+packages best suited for that category.
