Well it will be better with langs and on DVD, at least with a few
basic packages so new people can have a bit of choice with installing
a few packages to play around with. You know how nosy people can get.

I have started the package manager yesterday and find it nice but
when it has checked all packages it should go on to the main screen
instead of stopping and then click on the finish button.

Otherwise I find it a good idea the way it was done and also as
Daniel said that the packages are the standard FreeBSD. So there is
not too much to change and it will stick with the standard in the
*BSD tradition. You can see in the Linuxworld how many package
manager and package types are used. Mind you I don't use Linux.
