[oclug] distributions

[Matt Rose]

A second vote for GARNOME.  It's a great set of scripts, that'll get all
the required tarballs, and install them for you.  It also has a really
great, helpful, developer community.  I'm going off to install 0.13.1
right now.

You can get garnome at http://www.gnome.org/~jdub/garnome/
