After all a BASE standard is required, to bad the FSF's LSB group went about 10 billion light years beyond a base standard. [ when they started specifying applications they left a base standard behind. ie: should have a package manager, not MUST HAVE RPM SUPPORT. ] about the only part of LSB I'll implement is the file-system hierarchy, the rest is to far beyond a base standard to be usable as such.
