Hello, in my recent ISMB summary post I had suggested to create pointers to companies in the life sciences that officially state their compatibility with Debian and/or Ubuntu or their products. Is anybody opposing that idea?
I am asking since the sole reason for the folks in a Linux BoF of the supercomputing conference I attend (a portal is hoped to emerge at http://wiki.debian.org/HighPerformanceComputing over time) was the support of their hardware vendors for some particular distribution. So, most sites actually had all the major distributions installed, since the had bought in the past from multiple vendors. Consequently, when we can render it easy for potential buyers that Bioinformatics and Medical-Informatics associated companies do support Debian/Ubuntu, then I this would strengthen our distribution(s) considerably. And it also help the competition amongst the vendors to show their support. Best, Steffen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
