DISCONTINUED! The project is no longer being worked on.

... is the successor of the famous graphical Xfce Installer written by Benedikt Meurer, a transformation into a generic, Repository-based source package manager. Some facts about InstallIt:

• is also known as i2t
• written in Python using PyGTK
• is able to compile, install and remove source tarballs
• was started in August 2005
• is going to be finished in May or June 2006
• is maintained and written by Jannis Pohlmann, who also is responsible for the Verve panel plugin

• Repository structure
• User interface
• Dependencies
• Administrative (repository) tools
• Translations

• Subversion access
• Test (alpha, beta) releases

The two most important (and effective) discussion platforms are the installit-dev mailinglist and the #installit IRC channel on FreeNode. That’s where you can get in contact with developers of InstallIt as well as other users in the future.
