Yes it's a dev image, but it's also used for demos, and VLC and WB are
heavily used for demos.
And links is much lighter than Firefox, which might not run well yet on

The OSS package is actually a ZIP originally intended to be used on R5,
thus the Readme, and the media-node inside.
That shall be fixed when I update the port to the mercurial repos they
