United Linux does not make standards for the Linux community, the Free Standards Group does via things like the LSB.

If this affects us it is because they may start to erode Red Hat's dominance. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
