That would great :-)


For me, Packman has been an important OpenSuSE addon for many years.

I assume OpenSuSE would have had much less users if it wasn't for 
Packman who offered capabilities like watching videos or DVDs which are 
standard on almost every computer system.

So many thnx to the people who ran Packman up to now and those who might 
continue to work on it.


So long

Rainer
