Can we have a mention of Slávek's R14 preliminary-stable-builds repository on the web-site?
With a short explanation of what it is, along the lines of: more up-to-date versions and other architectures/distros can be found at...and perhaps the following from an email of Slávek's: 1) Add the source to sources.list: deb http://mirror.xcer.cz/trinity-sb *distribution-name* deps-r14 main-r14
2) From some public GPG keyserver download the key and import it into APT: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver pks.gpg.cz --recv-keys ED1F4884
Explanation of why I thought of it now:
Yesterday someone on one of my local LUGs' mailing list complained that when he upgraded to Vivid his DE went to pot - I won't bore you with the details. He went on:
<quote> Because of this, I thought I'd give trinity a go, but that doesn't appear to have a vivid release yet.
It looks like it's not my day today. </quote>
I hastily wrote sending my guess at the repository entry for Vivid, which I immediately confirmed here and ratified to him.
He replied:
<quote> Thanks for that.
I was trying to follow the instructions from trinitydesktop.org and using the pearsoncomputing ppa.
Have I been looking in the wrong place?

I used the repository you suggested, and I've installed trinity successfully. [snip] Until you mentioned it I had no idea that there were other repos for trinity. </quote>
Whilst R14 preliminary-stable-builds has no pretensions to being Stable, it is stable and is a valuable resource to us and could be to others. It seems worthy of a mention.
