Questions and Answers

Q: Shall we need update sources automatically?If yes, we shall add an update daemon.
    Maybe it is not a good idea for updating automatically in smart phone.
    Maybe the user should be able to select to update only if it's on Wifi/USB. EsbenDamgaard 20:07, 8 July 2007 (CEST)
