Albeit from the dutch mirror. Anyway, the reason I put my comments here instead of as PR was that I wasn't certain they would amount to much. Just things that struck me as odd. Talking about odd, what I also consider to be odd is that the option All doesn't give All. Mind you I just checked with Greg's Book and the figure (5.4 Distribution selection menu @ p.79, 3rd edition) does not show the All option. So, it looks like it's a new option. If so, then maybe someone who knows what (s)he's doing ought to look at it. Hm, this one I'm sure enough to grant PR status ;).
