4 hi everyone,
5 last week i was installing Gentoo on a brand new machine at work and i noticed
6 againg that tcpdump and the telnet client are not available in the liveCD's
7 environment. Why aren't they included? Is it about some policy or it's just
8 nobody asked them yet?

10 I think tcpdump in particular should be added, sometimes it's necessary to
11 check out network stuff at a lower level; the telnet client would be very
12 useful too, none ever thinks to use it to connect to remote shells, but
13 sometimes it can be very useful to check out services and stuff.

15 What do you think?
