I suggest to start this discussion as soon as possible and have a physical meeting during "Libre Software Meeting" at Bordeaux 7-10 july 2004. This is a good place to finalize the discussion. SuSE use rpm. Can they participate ? And why not Debian ? Toward a universal package ? IMHO, I wish to answer yes to all this questions. I believe that all the diversity is a richness as long as it is useful. But when it is no longer necessary, standardization must occur. I saw Warly at LSM2003 and we spoke about a first "Cooker Meeting" at LSM2004. ( Debian used LSM2001 to make its first convention ). So, you have two good reasons to come to Bordeaux next year. LSM is not a commercial exhibition. LSM is a meeting where developpers and contributors can make workshops, conferences, coding parties... and also drink, eat and laugh ;-) This year at Metz, LSM was 1000 people, 50 country, 27 topics, 170 conferences. It grows each year since 2000. -- Pierre Jarillon - http://pjarillon.free.fr/ Vice-pr�sident de l'ABUL : http://abul.org/
