In its form how it is now it is very poor, it asks few questions that were decided by programer. I don't think it can fit all. Instead, I am proposing that setup wizard provides data definition, so that people can create their setup wizards themselves and that setup wizard can easily be expanded by data definition templates. -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns In support of Richard M.
