That doesn't sound very nice to me (i've been working on it since 2 years and updated until now),

Hi all
Fred is spot on, btw. Your tone was not 'nice'. A certain arrogant judgmental edge came through uncomfortably....and here is why!
mklive-stretch is not an interesting wrapper 'idea' it is a working reality!!! Why make it seem like a non-working fantasy??
"may or may not be useful conceptually at least" ... (twice is a thing confirmed with God) The same belittling, ignoring the fact that it is in fact already useful not only conceptually but in reality!
The symantic and pragmatic implications of the linguistic choices we make when conveying thoughts and feelings are evident in the meta-linguistic features.
kind regards

Here they come, the useless moaning vultures. Let me repeat once and once more only: I was not meaning that mklive-stretch itself only a conceptually useful script - I was referring to how aspects of mklive-stretch script might be useful, at least conceptually, in a gui frontend for FirstRib, which does not use apt-get so beyond concept mklive-script is not useful for FirstRib at all, nor is it required. Fred is expert with yad and that skill is useful were it applied to FirstRib gui. Actually I admired mklive-stretch development - nothing new at all about wrapper script or using debootstrap or chroot for that matter, but it was a first on this forum where a developer wrote a script version of their development work that revealed the otherwise near-secret methologies buried inside their pre-configured isos. As someone who isn't particularly interested in polished iso products, but definitely interested in technical details of how things work, that was exciting move on Fred's part. Nothing to do with FirstRib scripts - which are not at all required or extracted from mklive-stretch or vice versa.
By the way, this further waste-of-time post is not for stemsee, who has just proved to me that he is yet another stirrer in the community. To stemsee all I have to reply is Shut-up.
The matter is now ended aside from the vultures who want to pick crumbs - no interest to me. No idea or understanding of Fred's 'concern' - he will have to explain that to you himself.
And to anyone else looking to complain, or stir things up, once side or the other, I have only that one thing as said to stemsee to say also. Bloody annoying shower.
I've spoken my part, and I await what Fred has to say now rather than concerning myself further with such idiotic and ignorant remarks of the likes of stemsee (I could write a list of some ot the other vultures similarly disposed - and so could Fred come to that, but I trust like me, he knows better than to pursue stirring nonsense, which would be a further meaningless waste of time and effort - let the stemsee-type vultures go and pick crumbs for their fun elsewhere and not disturb active project work trying to create divisions for their sick, jealous, amusements).
The following includes the couple of key "context" words missed out (i.e. with WeeDog/FirstRib) in the earlier shortened quote:
And of course mklive-stretch itself is an interesting wrapper idea, which may or may not also be useful (conceptually at least) with WeeDog/FirstRib
and the statement, for me at least, is correct, so I stand by it. The concepts to be found may or may not be useful for FirstRib/WeeDog. I have no doubt at all they are useful for their designed Debian-live-based -system purpose, but I never said or meant to suggest in any way otherwise.
