Hello folks,

I just finished Maemo 0.4a, which is probably the last alpha version. It 
now includes anjuta and some of the maemo apps (Plucker, ToDo, AbiWord). 
Usage is still a bit crude. If you plan using the CD for development, 
you may want to save changes made to the live filesystem that are 
located in /var/tmp/union/scratchbox (just tar it). In future versions I 
will provide some scripts for it.

In this iteration I still used the binary packages, for the next 
iteration I will probably compile all the stuff needed.

Our live CD may be good enough for starting development for maemo 
without needing a Linux box as well as for just getting a glimpse on the 
maemo GUI. But in which direction should the Live-CD develop? Should we 
provide a polished version that boots straight into maemo to demonstrate 
the possibilities of the GUI? Should we focus on developers and include 
tools? Should we build a derivative version that could be used with 
CoLinux to give people who just developed on windows the possibility to 
develop for maemo?
