As someone who maintains a full distro on top of CentOS for a big bunch of scientific workstations, all I can do is agree to this. There are unfortunalty tons of reasons (mostly bad ones, but not under my control) for which we are *not* using Debian (like Joss does at EDF) but I can definitely tell that one can measure how well Debian fits the needs for scientific machines.....when one tries to do the same on top or rpm-based hell (including Scientific Linux). So, I'm definitely convinced the proposal is good for developing links, yes. _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list [email protected] http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
