Hi there;
just loosely following this discussion as a "silent lurker", I feel like shortly dropping in here: [Guido Serra <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> @ Thu, 29 Mar 2007 14:18:39 +0200] > > isn't Knoppix a live distro, and the business of Klaus Knopper > > (http://knopper.net/) ??? > > http://www.knopper.net/preise/ > uhmm... is his toolchain public? For what I see, these prices are about consultancy work. I have done Knoppix remasterings several times by now, and for what I see, all the tools to be used for that are available in "the wild" as Free Software or "at least" open - source. But I think this is not really a "toolchain" but mainly just something like cloop + basic debian tools... By the way have look at http://www.gnewsense.org ... ;) You know, reading through this thread, I really understand your problem, but to me, the point is: No one _asks_ you to create open source software or even Free Software. People still do proprietary applications, and, given you'd create a (desktop) tool to spit out plaintext configuration files for the different applications needed in your environment, things probably will be "fine" (if one accepts proprietary software). But this probably is not why you are here, is it?
