Training, yes, definitely.
Custom distro, I'm not convinced. How are we, in our spare time,
going to produce something better than the many groups who're already
doing this full time? How are we, in our spare time, going to provide
timely security patches 20 times a week like Debian, Redhat, Gentoo,
and the other majors do?
If CRRC had local customization needs -- a CRRC logo on the login
screen or Eugene Metro WiFi preconfigured or something, I'd
understand. But I'm not seeing it otherwise.
We can also add value by helping CRRC select from the 369
distributions available* or streamline the install process
with a local package cache.
