Here's my take, roughly: SF has pros and cons, and one of the pros is that we're already using it. If we put a wiki here, a mailing list there, a web site some other place things will become unmanageable. A commercial grade server to host everything is another story. Async could fund that. But note this means stuff like root access and also direct net connectivity: after all we want to test things like a Felix web server. A strategic partner such as IBM or Google would be best though: two big IT companies without their own language. (MS has C# and .NET languages and Sun has Java). IBM has an Open Source development centre in Canberra, they pay people to work on stuff like Samba. Other obvious cases are Redhat .. and of course VALinux, or whoever owns them now .. the owners of Sourceforge :) -- John Skaller <skaller at users dot sf dot net> Felix, successor to C++: http://felix.sf.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
