Hello guys.

Just wanted to hear an opinion.
As we have quite a few distributions, platforms and the combinations
thereof to take care of now. It would make sense, form a usability
point of view to colour code them. Would you think that as helpful?

For example everything pertaining to 10.3 could have a certain colour
This obviously would also apply to the platform specific things.

Think that makes sense, building such an understanding with the user?

I think it is good to mark version specific information. But we need
to think about the colour blind people.
