Slow Comeback

   Well,  I`m slowly recovering my life...Moved into a little 1 bedroom house, mostly just me and Jayson, so 1 br is enough for now..So far, as far as Linux is concerned, I am still in catch-up mode..So much has happened in my absence...
   I am going to continue with PAW, at least to refine it and update any programs I see as necessary..I know a lot of people are into the "latest and greatest" but stability and integration are paramount with PAW, so many things will remain the same version, excepting the browser and some system stuff...
   I also know that the new lupu series, with access to the `butu repos, makes installing many of the elements of PAW a simple job...But things like Phatch, Blender, and the many patches in PAW, as well as the Python integration, are not..PAW serves a purpose, a niche, and I feel continuing it to be a wotrhy project..
  I am reluctant to change the base of PAW, the 2.6.21.7 kernel has served fine, and the Puppy 4.12 core seems rock solid..  Of course, it is BigBass`s barebones 4.12 core, so one would expect no less...
  I did build my own cores for PAW, using both unleashed and woof, but could never match BigBass for size and functionality, and if it works, use it..
 I need to update the links for PAW, as they are blind / dead links at the moment...
 Lots to do....
