I've been working on some admin tools and will take a good look at YAST when
it is made available. (I need to see if my efforts were just made
obsolete. :-] )
As far as admin tools and Debian are concerned, I think we need to catalogue
what tools, config stuff, and utils we want/need, plus what we have
available; identify where the holes are.
There is also a good chance that YAST will become the de facto standard set of
config tools for KDE based distributions, or that config-developers might
unite behind YAST and work together on it instead of on other fragmented
efforts. I guess we have to wait and see a bit.
(I'm also interested in writing a quick and easy to use CDR/DVD based backup
utility, using K3B for burning etc. It also happens to be a util I want/need
to have. Hopefully YAST hasn't covered that area yet. :) )
cheers,
