The home of the project is: |
| 17 |
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/ |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
In general the main aim of the desktop project is to serve as a platform |
| 20 |
for the maintenance and development of desktop related work in gentoo. |
| 21 |
This includes limited efforts to glue different packages together, but |
| 22 |
does not mean that the desktop project (or its subprojects) actually |
| 23 |
write new packages for the desktop. (well, the installer started out as a |
| 24 |
desktop project). |
