Stepping up a level, let me take a poll: why is it that there is no perfect distribution? 1) Perfect means different things to different people (ok, that's a reason, but broken-ass-crap isn't what *anybody* means by "perfect", so let's focus on that) 2) Not enough developers 3) Not enough money 4) Not enough coordination among developers 5) Too many options, different software packages, incompatibilities, versions, version release schedules thereof, different tools for accomplishing the same task 6) Lack of control over the options and software packages that are being integrated in the distro In short -- why is it my linux machines never ever ever "just work" ? -- Eric Altendorf // http://www.speedtoys.com/~eric _______________________________________________ EUGLUG mailing list [email protected] http://www.euglug.org/mailman/listinfo/euglug
