Am I not getting mail from everyone here, or is it just quiet?

I'd definately like to see the bash sources supplied on installation CD
(the mini-ISO, as that the only one I ever download) but I defiantely
would not like to see it as part of the base distro.

IMHO There should be a single shell supplied - /bin/sh

Other shells are personal preferance, and therefore should be installed
until someone requires them.
