Those who wants their GNU/Linux certified by 3rd party, this is a cool deal.
The best part is, your certification is not tied to any particular GNU/Linux vendor. Moreover, the certification comes from a non-profit, vendor neutral body, with GNU Spirit in exam developments.
yes this is the best part i also like ... you have a choice of RPM based test or DPKG based test .
LPI is quite democratic i believe . as far as i know its developed by the community ... the alumni come together to form the test objective and some core team helps makes the questions
also the fact is that a lot of IT cos are asknig for LPI now .. like novell ... heard some ppl from TCS taking the test too for some proj [ not sure ... heard at a test center ] ... IBM supports LPI they have a tut on developerworks http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/edu/l-dw-linux-lpir21-i.html
novell / suse certs have lpi as pre requisites
my 2 cents
