i am trying to understand what you are saying, are you saying that you wold want us to try to implement something in to the distro that not only looks like xp but also has windows apps or are you describing something else.

im sorry about are forum and are website, i mean are website is down at the moment, but we haven't had time to update on a lot of items as we have been busy creating the distro.

i cant remember everything we have in Barnix/DebXPde but i will try to give you as much info as possible -

Barnix / DebXPde 0.4 -
Based on Knoppix 3.4 (Latest Release)
XPde 0.5.2 (Version Only Published to us)
KDE 3.2.2
Debian OpenOffice.org 1.1.1-2 (i think)(it is newer and faster than the one on knoppix and is also completely in english)
Mozilla Firefox 0.8 - with Flash Plugin and will be adding Java Plugin.
we then have lots of brilliant networking tools i will list a few as there too many -

Ethereal
Nmap/FE
MacChanger
Ipcalc
ettercap

we will eventually make a more comprehensive list of what is in there and do some more documentation, i hope Arkaine23 can help us with the hosting as we would appreciate it, and then anybody who is interested could download it and then tellus there toughts.

Thanks,
