Hello Everybody
Hi there
Corect your DATE.
One of the founders of the open-source software initiative is planning to release a new version of Linux to challenge Red Hat's
You dont need a new distro. U and I can do that too. You need to create the infrastructure for delivering 24/7 services AND branding to match RH. Backing from the big guys?? for what. Are they creating a shared service and shared branding or what. And btw what happened to the OSI consortium which had exactly the same set of goals.
IMHO we have a perfectly usable model for GNU/Linux services - co-operatives. AMUL and the assorted sugar co-ops come to mind. Common branding with the producers making available their services locally under this brand.
Who needs a Hat - a Gandhi topee will serve us well. This should also fit in with the FSF's and libre software's primary goal of creating a better society, products etc. without the effort being hijacked by a few comatose corporations wondering how to lick the cream off GNU.
