Can plug-ins be downloadable add-ons like Firefox extensions? If so then a core set can be included but frills would be downloaded as needed and questions about them would go directly to their writer instead of the C::B developpers.

It is just for fun and it's a nice little plug-in.
If we should stick very closely to the main goal without a little diversion for fun ....

By the way i assume after you install linux or Windows xp you uninstall the games : what has minesweeper to do with an OS, or you hack the code of ms exell to remove the hidden flight simulator ;-)

ok, back to my half-lif 2 episode 1 plug-in for CB ... just kidding ;-)

Ha! I didn't even know about that, I've never used Excel. But it's no wonder MS software has a reputation for bloatware. It makes you wonder what other deadwood they stuff in their products. :?

Ceniza:
Flight simulator? I only remember the famous "Hall of Tortured Souls" of Excel 95.

Anyway, having that game doesn't make any harm, does it? :D

No, not at the moment. But if the collection of available plug-ins grows like the collection of Firefox extensions for example then a selection may have to be made. Including everything available with the standard distribution can make it unnecessarily bloated with options users don't really need. Also core developpers may receive a lot of questions about software they didn't write. It's not a problem today but something that came to mind as I was reading problems that users were reporting on something that is not directly CB-related. A separation seems appropriate. It's not my decision of course.
