regarding what to keep vs what to get rid of:
Hello.
Thought I'd chime in, as well.
(IMHO)
I would like to keep firefox, get rid of dillo, and reinsert links-hacked [or some console web browser that can use gpm].
I agree that there should be as little duplication as possible, unless you're talking about a console app as the lowend app and an X app as the high end. I would like to see the console supported more. I'd love to see gpm included and working with mc --I don't know how to fix mc myself for gpm.
Also, were you guys aware that mc can browse ftp servers?
pretty cool.
regarding window managers:
I think jwm is the smartest choice i've seen. It's lightweight and familiar.[I say, just pick one, and make it work]
I do have to say, I miss seeing the mountapp always on the screen, though. What I'm looking for in a window managers is : left click somewhere gives you a menu.
[touchscreens are usually left click only]
that could be jwm, wmaker [love the menus], or icewm [love the themings]...
Games:
Though I have used the card games, they aren't essental.
I wouldn't miss them much, if it was games vs functionality.
it would be nice to have one tiny token game though.I think tetris is a fine choice.
curtis is a 13kb [stripped] console tetris.

Also--were you aware that firefox could host javascript games?
I just played a fun game of othello, in firefox.
from
http://www.lutanho.net/stroke/play.html
this is probably asking too much, but
speaking of firefox again, a *really* useful extension to have is the NoScript extension, which gives fine grain control over which websites can use javascript. [it defaults to turning js off]
If you don't feel comfortable with installing it into the browser, having it on the iso would be real nice. [it is 101 kb, though]
