What advantage - both in compatibility and competitiveness - would LCC benefit any distribution? First I read that LCC is a standards body (implying a *like* to have feature set) next I read its a certification body (implying a *must* have feature set) -- is RH/FC gonna change all their certifications or will Debian change to conform to RH/FC testing? Which Distribution set the *standard* -- maybe I missed that? Please understand, I'm not tryng to start a flame war but simply trying to see what real tangible benefit to systems admins/developers rolling out hetergenous architectures using RH/FC/SuSE/Debian... Maybe the thread has went off topic and I got lost somewhere. -- WC -Sx- Jones http://insecurity.org/
