Tie in?
Tie someone into a specific distribution because that is the first one
they tried and had something they liked.
This is FLOSS, right? Nobody gets to tell people what
to do or not
in the end. So if anyone wants to create 'arbitrary' extensions,
he will. No profiles, no nothing change that.
EXACTLY my point. When do they cease being arbitrary extensions and
instead be something a bit more structural for those programming the
host to have a basic idea of what they should do to support the majority
of plugins.
It's a wild software jungle out there anyway and I
really do think we
have to rely on distributors to make it more handable for the average
user, where average user refers to everyone who is for whatever reason
not able or inclined to go out there to explore, test and learn.
I would completely disagree, that seems like a very lazy way of doing
things(No offense intended to you personally Thorsten). Oh this seems
to difficult, let someone else do it.
