Definitely something we want to do (you do mean the slideshow during the |
12 |
installation progress) but we also have to make sure that this slideshow is |

available for users before/after the installation (think use on events, |

Not every user sits behind his PC while Gentoo is installing, and not every |
17 |
user is interested in this screenshow, but the two aren't related. |
